Survive


breathe first, always breathe sense the air as it flows sense the moment as it goes from space and opportunity to closure and history bask in the mystery realize that your heaviest burdens offer you the greatest strength know that hardship is neither punishment nor blessing but both can become either with time allow yourself to see with more than your eyes and more than your feelings when you’re left reeling with nonsense of mind and direction notice the inflection of your thoughts and when all feels lost in the waves of pain and darkness in the onslaught of voices in the cacophony of choices find solace in the breath sense the air as it flows sense the moment as it goes know that you’ve survived it and you’ll survive the next eventually pain will give way to rest -rrf
