I write this for the people struggling with reality
For those finding out the space between fiction and faith is huge
Sometimes life forces you to open your eyes at inopportune times
Time that you feel like should be focused elsewhere
I'm writing this in a struggle with anxiety
I want everything accomplished now
I want the people around me better now
The process of building this foundation eats at me


I have to take a step back and enjoy life
The only thing that stands still, vanishes, and passes you by at once


People you have to realize the person who was your crutch isn't returning
They aren't coming back
You have to realize some people are staying no matter the force of separation
Open your eyes

YOU have a LOT to be grateful for
Enjoy the process while you can
Enjoy blossoming because some leaves are close to falling
Enjoy

I find peace in knowing I'm a healer
I find destruction in knowing people need my healing


Why
Can't
They
Open
Their
Eyes

Strength doesn't come from planning around things you know
Strength comes from looking uncertainty in the face and starting a conversation
Nobody is strong
We're all weak to some degree
Some battles tougher than others
This is why networking is paramount

My parables of pain deserve peace
So do yours

There is peace in getting through the trauma
Some journeys you have to take alone
You've taken on enough of others stress

Relax for once
Think
About
Yourself

If you're struggling as well, sit back and realize all the good you've caused
Realize how favored you are

You're blessed!
