What if it all turns out to be fine? What if fears prove irrelevant and problems become easy to solve? What if one of the greatest sources of tension and insecurity in your life right now is really just the result of a misunderstanding that is surprisingly easy to address? What if almost all of the energy that you are now tending to expend on a troublesome situation is actually unnecessary? I'm not just asking these questions in an attempt to make idle conversation; I'm trying to help you see your situation from a more appropriate angle!
It is amazing what can happen when we improvise. When we think positively, when we allow ourselves to explore our ingenuity, when we unleash our creativity, we can solve so many problems. We can make do and mend. We can turn sows' ears into silk purses. We can see how something tremendous is hiding within something troublesome. Don't underestimate your potential now, and don't waste your precious energy feeling aggrieved about what you appear to be short of.We tend to think of time as a one-way street. 
We are proceeding forward along it and there is no option to travel in reverse gear. I'm not convinced about the idea that the clock can never be turned back but let's leave that issue aside and just look at how any of us can expect to get from here to the future. We don't need to make an effort. It is inappropriate to see ourselves as needing to walk or drive. We could just stand still and the future will come close! Why, just look at what is starting to happen in your life now! 
Is the Xbox One the best new entertainment machine? The makers would like us to think so. But then, people go to such efforts to whip up enthusiasm for their new inventions. Yet really, if you want to be impressed by something, just look at what lives within your own mind. Appreciate your own Technicolor vision, Sensurround experience and state-of-the-art communication interface. You have already got the most amazing memory upgrade!
