One of my greatest downfalls is letting everything and anything get the best of me.  Whether it be family troubles, relationship anxiety or clashes between friends or everything else, I let myself fall apart all too easy.  I’m lucky that half the time I just step back and look at it from a different perspective.  I’m lucky to be in school and surrounded by the best people in the world.  I am loved and I shouldn’t forget that.  I have my health and I’m lucky to have made it this far.  Looking back, I’m lucky to even be alive right now.

What bothers me though, is what do I do the other half of the time? When I DON’T see it like that? When it’s all a little short of hopeless.  I’m so over struggling and defending.

One thing I’m certain of is, I need a break from my daily routine.
