This sounds like it might be a book we heard about down here. We have a National Radio programme which is wonderful and the presenters call people all over the world about books and research. ( Only criteria is that they understand enough English and can speak it it seems as well as not being overtly religious in any sense). We often hear from authors in Uk or USA or Canada and there was one a couple of weeks ago I only half heard as in the car which was on this kind of topic. Thought - I want that book - wish I knew the title. So now I can look it up on Amazon. It may not be the one as I am not at all sure I heard or agree with the definition of worry but if it is -thanks.
Wow, I thought worry was less savage, but I think you are right in that it can rip your insides out.
My dear mother always used to say \"Why worry when you can pray?\" Don\'t know if that was original or she heard it somewhere else, but it was a favorite of hers, and all these years later, I can still hear her say it. Good sound advice.
