That worry is the ego being identified with stress and worry. And of coarse it would be really disorienting to not have that identification. I don't think anyone as an ego that relies on identification with looking for things to become happy, is ever going to find joy. Dreaming of the day to be happy is more of the ego getting in the way of right now. It's a paradox that trying to become happy is a unsuccessful path to being happy, because "trying to become" and "waiting until" is much different than "being".
