The "Ah hah" of the day...

I was once given a book titled “Women Who Think Too Much: How to Break Free of Over thinking and Reclaim Your Life” by Susan Nolen-Hoeksema
Michael gave me this book after many discussions regarding my ability to fret, worry and over think absolutely everything in my daily life. As much as I leap without looking, right after the leap, I am going through a mind game of “what if” scenarios. I never analyze prior to doing something, it is always during the fall, seconds before the “SPLAT”
I asked a dear friend of mine yesterday (who knows all my truths and loves me anyway) why I was never content. Constantly restless. Searching for “something”. Her response was that I am a “wandering soul” I rather enjoy that description.
I like to think that I am strong enough to keep wandering and searching for true happiness, then to just give up and give in. I have more battle scars for that course of action, but the stories and lessons are priceless. I may not have always gone about my life in what some might say is the “right way” but I have always gone about it “my way”.
And really, how do you stop over thinking? Just the fact that I think so much about how not to over think seems to defeat the purpose? Maybe I should just sell the book on Ebay? 
