"  just try to stay present . whenever you feel overwhelmed just try to remember the exact minute that you're doing whatever you're doing is yours and own it . the world is your playground . your oyster , your ocean , whatever resonates best with you . feel all of your feelings and know that you are present  " 

i will hold to these words like they are a life raft,
a life raft that is keeping me from sinking into the darkness of my mind,
thank you,
friend,
thank you,
for being the giver of love, 
for being the giver of my new found life raft,
of my new found hope,
thank you.
