Withdraw

Don’t complain about the hollowness
when you’re the one to push away every person
who dares to come close.

Drug

Sadness
is like a drug.

It takes you
away
from reality.

And makes you see it
in a whole new way.

Short Story

Here’s a short story,

A psychologist walked around a room while teaching stress management to an audience. As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they’d be asked the “half empty or half full” question. Instead, with a smile on her face she inquired, “How heavy is this glass of water?” The answer called out ranged from 8 oz to 20 oz. She replied, “The absolute weight doesn’t matter. It depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, its not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my arm. If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel numb and paralyzed. In each case, the weight of the glass doesn’t change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.”
She continued, “The stress and worries in life are like that glass of water. Think about them for a while and nothing happens. Think about them for a bit longer and they begin to hurt. And if you think about them all day long, you will feel paralyzed – incapable of doing anything.” Always remember to put the glass down.

Don’t play a war in your mind, just let it go. 😉

“Let them Go”

Sometimes you have to let people go

because

they are toxic to you.

Let them go because they

take and take and leave you empty.

Let them go because

in the ocean of life when all you’re trying to do is stay afloat,

they are the anchor that’s drowning

you.. 😐
