Life

Some people have their act together easily handling everything Life throws at them

But you don't know what's going on behind the curtains inside their minds

They might be giving it their best guess struggling to keep it together for everyone else's sake

It's hard to not compare yourself to other people But do try to remember

that everyone's human no one's perfect and we're all just giving life

Our best guess

When someone you love is sad there's only so much you can do to make them smile again

When someone you love is scared there's only so much you can do to chase away the demons

When somone you love is struggling there's only so much you can do to help them move forward

It's hard to accept your limits especially when it comes to helping a loved one You may not be able to fix it at all but what you can do every time

Be there Keep loving them Listen to their needs And eventually

That will be enough

Tiny flower petals Drifting in the breeze Carrying with them some precious memories

Can you see them floating on my Traveling upon the passage of Time

Days come and go passing so fast One blink of an eye and the future becomes the past

Take a deep breath stay present and see Tiny flower petals drifting in the breeze

Life happens fast It hits hard, crushes us So sometimes you've gotta take a step back

This memo That message Those bills Do they need to be dealt with now? Or will they still be there?

It doesn't feel like it The constant pressure yells “DO IT NOW!” “THIS IS IMPORTANT!”

But you know what?

You are important So if you need a break Take one Because all of that life

It can wait

Sometimes Life hits HARD too fast to react too strong to take too much to bear and I have to stop and rest When I do I realize I wasn't ready Life was worse than I thought it'd be

It's so easy to become jaded to assume Life will always be this bad

Sometimes Life surprises me it's soft and calming, gentle and kind, warm and loving Life is looking out for me I realize Life was better than I thought it'd be

It's so hard to take Life one day at a time But I still have those moments of kindness to remind me

That Life isn't always as bad As I thought it'd be

It's a sunny day a lovely stroll shiny people a good sleep

Days like this make the world bright the air fresh the sun warm

It won't last forever and tomorrow might be dreary so I'll enjoy today as best I can

I'll breathe the air I'll feel the sun I'll store up the light And I'll enjoy

every moment

When life is too much When it hits too hard It helps to know That I can stop and listen to the sounds of life

Close my eyes Take deep breaths

Listen

Birds Piano Guitar Drums Laughter Song Happiness Rain Love

Life goes on All around me And I know I can listen And remember that I'm not alone

I walk through life taking careful steps because I always do my best to be kind

I don't expect it from others but I still watch out for it because I can always do more to be kind

When I experience kindness especially a brand new sort I remember that new way to be kind

Because I know that random bits of kindness can brighten anyone's day so I'll keep learning and do my very best to be kind

One of the many tools I have available to me is the breath in my body

With a deep breath I can return to center Calm my mind Restore my energy

I know No matter how scared or angry or stressed out I happen to be

I can take a breath Hold it Let it out Hold it

Return to center Return to stability

And everything will be okay

It's okay to simply exist no matter what anyone else insists. I am valid, I am fine It's my time to spend, mine So I'll spend it resting if I choose After all, I've got nothing to lose by ignoring the grind outside And right now, I'd rather be resting inside I'll take my time until I'm ready to say “Okay. Now it's time to take on the day.”
