Do you still worry?

[cateyes1]

I have 2 grown children, My daughter is 33 and my son is 29. I thought that when they were grown and made a life of their own the worries would end there. My daughter and her husband just bought a new house and I worry (was this a mistake) my son just moved in with someone he's known for awhile yet i'm worring should they have taken it to that level and NOT move in right away? anyone that has grown children do you still worry about them? should I just let life take it's course and what ever happenes happenes and dont stress over it because it's out of my control anyways?..how does 1 stop stressing over every little thing? HELP i'm losing my mind with this stress  ...thaks peeps HUGS to you all...........

I only worry about the stuff I can change and let the rest happen.

My personal philosophy is to do what I am able to do and leave the rest to God. I feel that if I worry after that then I am not helping the situation. Anger and frustration do not solve my problems. Peace and a calm spirit will help a situation.

It's only natural to worry about your loved ones.  I don't have kids but I worry about my mother sometimes just little things nothing big and I know she still worries about me sometimes.  Your kids have their own lives and can make their own decisions.  When worry turns into thinking about it obsessively then it's a problem.  You can show concern for them but you can't stop whatever happens.
