breathe

this song really spoke to me:

Breathe by Ryan Star

She's fine most of the time
She takes her days with a smile
Moves like a dancer in light
Spinning around to the sound
But sometimes she falls down

Breathe, just breathe
Take the world off your shoulders and put it on me
Breathe, just breathe
Let the life that you live be all that you need

Let go of our fear, let go of our doubt
Let go of the ones who try to put you down
You're gonna be fine, don't hold it inside
If you hurt right now then let it all come out

i try to do this often. i sit still, breathe and remind myself to enjoy or appreciate the moment. of course, some moments are awful. in those i remind myself things will eventually be okay. that is after i've cried and yelled to let the pressure release. as bad as things get, i do find ways to comfort myself and figure out how to deal with the next frustration.

the best thing to remember is to breathe.
