If it hasn't happened yet....
DON'T worry about things that haven't happened yet. Yes, you may believe that your sister is going to have too much wine at the wedding and act like a bimbo. She has a tendency to do that at any big event, so you've spent days and weeks worrying about her assured antics. She's going to embarrass you in front of your fiance's family! In front of your colleagues! In front of your guests! You can just hear her slurring through the maid of honor toast already!
Imaginative people can really paint a vivid picture of a scene in the future.
And if you're really good at imagining something negative in the future, you'll get that sick sense of dread in your stomach. But what good does that do for you now? It's not going to prevent your sister from cozying up to a bottle of wine (or four). So give yourself the gift of peace right now by refusing to 'paint' that picture, refusing to invest your time and energy worrying about what she might do.
If it hasn't happened yet, don't dwell on it...you have A CHOICE of what you can dwell on, so make it something positive and sweet instead!
