Just breathe...

Today was one of those days.

Not one of those days where I freak out and bitch about everything.

Not one of those days where I work all three jobs and get home in time to eat and sleep.

Not even one of those days where I do something crazy fun.

No, today was one of those days where I put down the paperwork, finish my 4th cup of coffee, and just breathe.  And maybe cry a little.  Today was one of those days where I just sit there with my head in my hands and call on Jesus, because I need to realize that it's all out of my control.  It doesn't matter if someone makes a stupid little comment.  It doesn't matter what I'm wearing today.  It doesn't even matter how hard I work at my jobs.  Because it's out of my control.  Every bad thing that sets me behind is a blessing disguised as growing pains, and every good thing that happens is assurance that everything will be okay in the end.  I just need to have faith.  Because faith is what will ultimately bring me joy, passion and success in life.  Because all things that truly matter to me, are firmly grounded in it.  All I need to do today is just relish in that one little fact, let all the rest go, and just carry on.  In the words of Anna Nalick ~

"Yeah we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes
Like they have any right at all to criticize
Hypocrites, you're all here for the very same reason

And ‘cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable

And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table

No one can find the rewind button, girl

So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe, just breathe

Oh breathe, just breathe"

Just breathe <3

Love,

Alice
