72 hours. 3 days. 4,320 minutes. 259,200 seconds.

Seems like an infinite doesn't it? But in the moment, its simply just three days. Three whole, long, tiring days. But a lot can change in three days. You could dye your hair. You could ace a test. You could fall in love. You could wear your favorite outfit. You could find $100 on the floor. A lot can happen in three days. Most importantly, three days is the time it takes to decide. The best advice I've ever been given is three days.

If it won't matter in 72 hours, it's not worth worrying about now.

When something happens, and it seems like the world is ending, is it really? That simple little inconvenience that seems like the more than infinite, it really isn't. It isn't more than something that will matter for 30 minutes or maybe even 5 hours, but that's all. As easy as it comes, it will go.

If you don't feel the need to react and retaliate in 72 hours, don't do it at all.

You know when something rubs you the wrong way, or you're in a bad mood and some says something absolutely not needed, take a deep breath. Take a long, big, deep breath. And let it go. It's not going to matter in three days, it's not going to make a difference in three days.

If they know you're hurting, and they haven't check on you in 72 hours, move on.

When they know you hurt you, or they know you're hurting, give them three days. Give them three whole days. And if it still hurts, you have to move on yourself. Alone. Because 72 hours it enough time to know you hurt someone you love.

And most importantly....if it's still on your mind in 72 hours, say it.

You have three days to say what you want. Three days to say anything you want. But after three days, it's will kill you. If you keep it in after three days, it's going to eat you alive. You have three days before it effects everything. Three days to just say it.

Three days is a long time. But it's long enough to give perceptive. It's long enough to react. It's long enough to find out whether you mean something to someone. It's long enough to find out if you miss someone; if you can't live without them. It's long enough to decide what is worth your time, and what isn't.
