Why people say --Don't worry be happy?
Do you think it is easy to be happy when there are only worries and no solution ...Do you think we can ignore worries so easily if our whole life has become one never ending question because of these worries.

Keep this in mind. The smartest minds in the world, have always suffered for their knowledge, where as the dumb and simple minded people, lead happier lives. They say the less you know, the more happy you are. Smart people tend to question and find answers, they over analyze and sometimes in during or even after this process they aren't happy with the end result or with whats going on causing stress and anxiety. Dumb people can live their entire lives and not question a thing and be happy. Here's a quote my philosophy professor shared with me: Questions cause stress, Answers cause anxiety, stupidity causes laughter.
So when you say don't worry be happy, another way to look at is by saying "Don't worry, stop thinking"

Sometimes you have to understand that worrying doesn't really help in most situations; it just makes things worse. And if you worry too much you'll be too busy doing/ stressing over a situation that you won't be able to be happy.
That's bad because all that stress can be too much for a person and has a high chance of causing depression which is the worst feeling ever; believe me. If there are problems in your life or someone else's, do what you can do to solve them or just wait it out if it's all you can do.
Everything has a solution, good or bad. Some people might just be too stressed or just straight up hopeless to see it.( Speaking of hope, it's important to have that in those type of situations as well as patience.) So, cheer up. (: With hope there's strength and with strength you can take on anything. Well, I wish you the best of luck to deal with whatever it was/ is that's making you feel this way. ~

It's a phrase to try to cheer people up when they're feeling down. Sometimes you have to be more optimistic and think of the bright sides of things instead of always worrying about stuff. Life is too short to always worry everyday.

It's more like people just want others to try to stay positive, no matter how bad things get. Telling yourself that there's nothing you can do to fix anything will only make you more upset, while trying to stay optimistic will help you accomplish things and just enjoy life more. Basically, don't feel sorry for yourself, because it only makes things worse.

It's better if you can put your worries aside for any length of time, but it's not always easy and I understand that.

There's always a solution. Every question will be answered in it's own time.

Worrying will cloud your rational judgement. It's said as a way to help clear your mind so you don't make hasty decisions and do something stupid.

Because they're always drunk?...Believe me, if you go thru life sober, there are so many things to worry about I couldn't even tell you where to begin.

I think, Because, When We are in Worry, We could NOT do any work in Positive way to DONE.
We make Disturbance to Our surrounding and Our work and mainly Our thinking is in Negative way with unfinished and unsatisfied Life to Our self and Others.
