Is it normal to worry about petty things?

Is it normal to worry about petty things and ignore serious issues that affect us all and ultimately cause all the petty issues to be null and void?
I have posted a very, very serious question and although most people agree, not many have commented.

    I guess it's very normal. Key question is;
    What are the magical ways to fight worrying about things you may no have control over? How does one find ways to focus on more productive or more pleasurable things instead of the petty things?

      I have friends in very high places. They are helping me.It is up to us, all of us to decide. We must all work as one but allow independent thought and innovation. Please visit my other post and ask a similar excellent question. The answers are there for you and I and to decide upon them.

    What helps me is that sometimes I get this idea thag time repeats itself, so, me worrying won't change the future because it will happen no matter what I do be cause what I choose to do has already been done by me in the past, its only repeating.

      Time has only one direction, FORWARD.
      It is HUMAN NATURE that we repeat our mistakes.

    I know I worry about petty things all of the time. I should be worried about paying my medical bills but I am also very worried about a dent I put in my car and it consumes more of my attention.

    I guess the petty things are more everyday, and people tend to be focused more on the small troubles directly affecting them as they go through everyday life and experience them.

    Just out of curiosity, what are some serious issues to you that you tend to ignore?
