I only worry about the things I can control... getting packed & ready, getting to the airport on time, making it to the right gate, etc. Once I'm on the plane and in the air, nearly everything that can happen is completely beyond my control. So I don't worry about it.

Rose is completely opposite to me... she only worries about the things she *can't* control. So I guess between me and her we've got everything covered in the worry department! ;)

See, I'm like Rose!!! If I have some measure of control, I'm alright...if I can do anything at all, I'm not near as anxious.

But put me in a situation that I deem "potentially dangerous" and I don't have any control and I get really anxious.

Now I don't go around feelin' anxious because most situations are not potentially dangerous.
