If only one thing is certain, it is that life is not always perfect. Unexpected twists appear at every turn, bringing down the overall vibe of life. This dreary, chilly October week has gotten the better of me. It seemed like this week's single goal was to knock me down just when it seemed like I was getting to my feet. Everyone has these weeks, where nothing goes the way it should and it takes everything in your power to not stay deep in bed. In light of my bad week, and the several people who are also having bad weeks of their own, here are a few reminders.

You are incredible

You're strength is amazing. Despite all odds, here you are, facing it all. You have nothing to prove and no one to impress. You are free to do exactly what makes you happy, whether that means taking the world on by your self, or taking the time to regroup and take care of your own health. There is nothing wrong with asking for help. This week is gone and a new one faces ahead. Things will get better; not instantly, but soon. I hope you find something to make you smile, laugh, think, or even just distract you from whatever may be getting you down. Everyone deserves a break. Take your time, take some breaths, and remember this day only lasts so long. A new one will begin.

For me, the end of this week could not have come soon enough. A new one lies ahead, completely new, ready for anything to happen. Time to wait and see what happens next.
