For Those Days When Nothing Seems Okay
If you can do nothing else, do this one thing
Some days you just feel blah.
Maybe you’re not feeling well, or you didn’t sleep well.
Maybe something got you down, or nobody around you could talk about anything other than the problems they’re having and all the things that aren’t going their way.
Maybe they’re struggling, and in an attempt to feel better and less alone, they unloaded all of their woes onto you.
Whatever it is, it’s okay.
There can be a million different reasons why we feel a weight on our chest.
Some days that weight is harder to carry than others.
Sometimes it feels like the whole world is caving in, and you don’t know where to turn or what to do.
No matter what you do or where you go, everything just feels like too much.
On those days, sometimes all you can do is just breathe.
Take a deep breath, sit, and be.
Take it one moment at a time; one breath at a time.
You can get through the whole day this way if you have to — just one step at a time.
