I have been living in Miyako for a little over a year now, and figured it was time to share some of my pictures. The below video is a collection of mostly underwater shots I have taken while snorkeling. Miyakojima is a small island of southwest of Okinawa that has absolutely beautiful oceans and weather.

If you enjoy the video please comment and subscribe to my You Tube channel as I will be making more videos.

A simple question: does worrying help you better prepare or does it just cause unneeded stress?

This is something I often wonder. On one side, worrying about something causes me to take action and make preparations if something doesn’t turn out well. And sometimes those preparations create an even better result than I had originally hoped for.

On the other side, worrying about a worst case scenario can cause a lot of stress. Not to mention that many times there isn’t much you can do about it until the time actually comes.

I tend to be a pretty positive person and always hope for the best. However, I also try to be realistic in assessing a situation. Being to unrealistic can lead to disappointment and leave someone in a bad situation with no options.

So, what do you think? Is worrying a constructive and important part of decision making, or is it simply unneeded stress?
