Therapy IV
“Jen, what’s wrong with me? Honestly, I am so tired of all these things.

My thoughts were clustered; words became gibberish; I could feel my heart beats in my throat and I kept on gasping for air but the suffocation wasn’t going away. I put on a smile, a flowy blue dress, a bright shade of lipstick and a pair of 7 inch heels. My fearless looking armor hid…

Have a nice day!
Hey you. How’s your sanity doing today? Before jumping on to your task of saving the world, did you remember to breath? The scent of cool morning air, mixed with a drop of subtle sunshine and grass, is a good reminder that we are lucky to have today. Did you take a big gulp of…
