"People believe that if we really want to eliminate something, focus on that. How much sense does it make for us to give the particular problem all of the energy, as opposed to focusing on trust, love, living in abundance, education, or peace? -Un.


I can feel the sun,
But I can't feel,
Those positive effects,
It's supposed to have on me.
The light is just pushing,
Pushing more and more,
Responsibilities,
On my shoulders.
I can feel it weighing me down,
And it's driven me to feeling,
Like I'm just not good enough.
I just hope that I can manage,
To pull myself back up.
To live happily again.
But my lungs are collapsing now,
And I can hardly breathe.
