We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget that she is someone today. ~Stacia Tauscher

The Mayans believed that there are worry people. You should whisper your worries to these dolls, and then place them under your pillow before going to sleep The dolls are thought to worry in your place, thereby permitting you to sleep peacefully. By morning they will have taken your worries away!

WORRY DOLL LEGEND - There is a legend amongst the Highland Indian villages of Guatemala: If you have a problem, then share it with a worry doll. Before going to bed, tell one worry to each doll, then place them beneath your pillow. Whilst you sleep, the dolls will take your worries away!
With the summer finally here it would be nice just to enjoy the sun and forget our worries with some time at the beach. However, no matter good the weather is the fact still remains that the Greek economy is in serious trouble with signs of economic decline appearing everywhere from the sight of pensioners dumpster diving to the fact that consumers are cutting back even on staples such as milk and other diary products.
Even with the help that people have been so generous in giving me after the break - in I am still wondering how I'm going to get through the next three months, traditionally a period when people are not interested in doing English lessons. On the other hand I see people especially those who live in the poorer neighbourhoods on the west side of the city for whom the coming summer is going to be a fight for survival. Contrary to what you may have read in the foreign press about profligate Greeks living high on the hog there are millions of ordinary people who are worried over how they are going to pay household bills and feed their families.
These are Greeks on lower incomes (some of the lowest in the EU) who do not have a steady income, jobs in the public sector and who saw little or nothing of the massive state expenditure racked up by previous governments. These are the Greeks who are obliged to send their kids to dire state schools, live in areas with lousy roads, high crime and virtually non-existent public services. They are the Greeks who take their risks in a public health service which is running out of basic medical supplies and in many cases do not have the staff to offer proper emergency care.
To add to their burdens Greece is currently in the grip of an inflationary cycle with prices rising by 5.4% , three times the Eurozone average. Much of this increase is fuelled by rises in VAT and indirect taxes on petrol and much due to ever present price cartels which make sure that competition is in name only.
With shrinking incomes comes rising unemployment, especially for the young and women who were already disadvantaged in the job market wages have fallen still further leading to a slow death dive in which less and less money is available which in turn results in demand shrinking and so yet more job losses. It's very hard to see how the economy is going to avoid this. Despite talk of PM Giorgos Papandreou's talk of stimulating development the reality is that the government has little to offer other than words.
What seems likely is that whatever promises the present socialist PASOK government has given to the IMF/ECB in return for further bailout money are going to be harder to keep. Not simply because the austerity measures they demand are causing massive social upheaval but also because with the Greek economy tanking sources of tax revenue are drying up faster than a puddle in Death Valley. Those who made their billions through their political and personal connections with the two major parties have long since made sure that their wealth is beyond the reach of the taxman, leaving Athens to grab what it can from those citizens who do not have access to Swiss bank accounts or off-shore companies.
As the Greek parliament once again goes through the annual charade of investigating itself for corruption and once again manages to avoid bringing even one of their ranks to justice the rest of Greece looks on disgusted with this particular puppet theatre, convinced that whatever political capital PASOK and New Democracy had has long since vanished.
Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but it gets you nowhere.

My tummy hurt this morning because I worried so much about my undergrad thesis seminar which is tomorrow and my boyfriend's surgery, also tomorrow.
His surgery was just cancelled, because of a strike. Still worry about the seminar though! Poor tummy...
Why are my hands in almost every picture? o_O And by the way, I promise you happier pics once this is over. I'm usually happier than this.
"Dualism, Shelby: Sample A; Sample B"

Through Dualism, I’m interested in exploring the correlation of the mind and body, specifically how physical ailments influence the self through underlying mechanisms which guide our behavior. For the left image, I have scanned images of the subjects and constructed transparent paper sculptures out of them, photographing them as the final piece. For the right image, I have cast the subject's head in clay, and constructed a paper cast in tissue paper from that mold, photographing it as the final piece. I wish to convey how living with a life influencing illness is a shift between the internal and external, death and rebirth, worry and comfort, with each swaying the other in a careful endless balance.
Don't worry about your life, cause if you hold it too close, you'll lose it.
Then I see the birds
I watch them fly
They've got everything they need
They show me why I can be free
Knowing You will care for me.
"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."
Don't worry. Don't be anxious. Because God will take care of you. Because He is taking care of you. So why should I worry? Or why should I be stressed or anxious or nervous or afraid? Because He is holding me in His arms. And He has a plan for my life. And He is with me always. So don't worry and don't stress. Because if you hold life too close you'll lose it. And don't be anxious about anything, just take it to Him in prayer. He will take care of today and tomorrow and the next week and month and your entire future.
I wish I would always remember this. So this is my reminder.

What? Me Worry? October2025. I wonder if anybody else has a picture of how dangerous this looks. Just from appearance this looks like it’s ready to go anytime. It does looks like there’s new wood here running horizontally, hopefully to keep it from falling. Helena, Arkansas USA. KodakProImage. NikonF3. Nikkor28-105AF.BelliniC41kit.AGOFilmProcessor.

The Worry Vessel is a self-supporting container built entirely of seed beads. It is designed to be a modular project which can incorporate some or all of the various modules of the design. It is entirely up to the beader to decide which, how many and what order the modules are added. Two of the modules are designed to rotate around a central core. A lid topped with a crystal rivoli closes The Worry Vessel.
Learn to use thread tension to control the rigidity of the structure. Learn to increase and decrease peyote to give the structure contours. Learn to use colour placements and embellishments to create interesting variations to an otherwise plain background. Use Cubic Right Angle Weave incorporating sparkling fire polished beads to weave one of the two rotating modules. Use netting techniques to add pearls to the second of the rotating modules.
The Worry Vessel is designed not only be functional as a container for all that is precious. The rotating modules are also designed to be somewhat of a worry vessel, not unlike worry beads, allowing you to rotate them as you contemplate what your next beading project should be.

During the last week in August each year the villague of Eyam, Derbyshire holds it's Carnival and Wakes week in remembrance of the plague that decimated the population in 1665-6. In addition to the dressing of the villages three wells locals also display mannequins outside their homes. The 2012 winner was of a hippie in a tent and included this hippie statement. September 2012
