>Attitude, after all, is everything.
While I'm all for having a positive attitude, trying (not "try" as "attempt" but as "invest effort") not to worry too much, and generally am an easy-going person, this sort of exaggerated mindless optimism is so out of this world. Wouldn't recommend this story to anyone with diabetes.

You lost me here. Not just for posting an obviously religious piece of pedagogy, but because I think this is just plain wrong. Just as wrong as the "don't worry, be happy" attitude.
Maybe we define worry differently. To me, worry is a mental process where you realize the seriousness of a problem, and start working on a solution. And there you most often have more than two choices. But without worrying, you'll just made the initial choice to not even start to think of a solution. Then what - allow the blind stochastic nature of events to hand you a solution (good for you, bad for you, irrelevant, good now but bad later...), and be happy because you didn't worry?
Sure, there's always a choice, and if your mind is capable of imagining such non-duality, there's quite often more than just two choices to make.
Really, why is Christianity so bent on defining life in terms of binary logic? More than two too complicated?
