The fool's concern
A cyclical concern occupied his mind every time he woke up in the morning, what would his family eat, he remembered his recent past, the focus of the concerns was on the choice of clothing that would lead to Thursday dinner, not arriving late to the gym or soccer game, maintain the diet and thus lose the extra kilos that spoiled your silhouette. The agenda of a job that suffocated him and at the same time separated him from his family.
Now, he looked in the mirror, detailed the bones of the clavicle, could count the ribs under the skin and his dewlap had disappeared leaving a flaccid skin. Overnight, everything had changed, he lived daily, facing the shortage.
However, at the same time he was amazed, because he enjoyed today the closeness of his family, which for many years the strenuous hours of work in search of work success had robbed him. Worried but serene, very thin but free of headaches and excessive stress.
At dusk, he thanked God, and how not to do it ?, he had not lacked the plate of food for his family, always unexpectedly came the resources for food: a constant miracle showed that life is simple, only we complicate it.
Each night at bedtime he recriminated himself, what a fool he had been to worry, the teacher well said:
Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
Before closing my eyes, curled up in bed he thought: I am a fool, yes, every day less foolish before the evidence and happier. If I had known before, many stones in my path would have avoided. Tomorrow will be another day to worry about.
