be
gentle
with yourself
like fragile glass.
you're only human,
imperfectly perfect,
we're all a little broken.
it's no use dwelling in the past;
abandon regrets and mistakes there.
whenever you fall down, you'll rise back up.
no matter how i n f i n i t e s i m a l,
anything troubling will come to pass,
take time to focus on your breath,
remember this, friend, there isn't
a thing broken within
or out of yourself
that you can't fix!
treat yourself
with great
care.
