Worry Stone

Worry stones are smooth, polished gemstones, usually in the shape of an oval with a thumb-sized indentation, used for relaxation or anxiety relief.  A reassuring talisman to keep in your pocket or gift to someone close to you.

The stone is wrapped in a card with the following poem .”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. If you die then there are two things to worry about. Either you will go up or down.

If you go up, then there is nothing to worry about. But if you go down you will be so busy shaking hands with old friends you won’t have time to worry!.”
