Why Worry?

My mom gave me a bunch of new recipes she found in a photo album. One of them is for my most favorite dessert - rainbow cookies - so I am pretty super pumped about that one (although it looks really complicated). I was looking through them all tonight, and saw that hiding in there with all the cookies and cobblers was a clipping from an old newspaper. Kind of like a poem, and it was called: Why Worry?

There are only two things to worry about -
Either you are well, or you are sick.
If you are well, then there is nothing to worry about.
But if you are sick, there are two things to worry about -
Either you will get well, or you will die.
If you get well, then there is nothing to worry about.
But if you die, there are only two things to worry about.
Either you go to heaven or to hell.
If you go to heaven, there is nothing to worry about.
If you go to hell, you'll be so darn busy shaking hands with old friends,
You won't have time to worry.

It made me smile to think she liked that little poem so much, she cut it out and put it in this photo album, who knows how many years ago.

This weekend, I am going to try a brownie recipe from the album!
