Problems and Solutions

In every person's life, there are always problems and usually it seems that there very few solutions for them. Some problems might refer to everyday life; the others might appear from time to time and be forgotten. There are problems that resolve themselves with time; and there are those which person should resolve immediately.

It may seem that I am too worried about this problem and I still have plenty of time to think about it. The reason why I am quite concerned about it is not because I have been following the news.
