I love this song. It’s a great reminder to “just breathe,” and I love the metaphors she uses.

Unexpected Perspective Shift
I don’t believe in failure
Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major-from “Seven Years” by Lukas Graham-
I heard this song for the first time today. I was in the car, driving home from school. This song is a really good song, with a unique beat and beautiful, heartfelt lyrics. The DJ had compared it to the “100 Years” by Five for Fighting. I wouldn’t put it quite at the same level, but it’s very similar in a lot of ways. But this specific quote really struck me at the time. I just watched the video a second time and didn’t notice it as clearly. Obviously, it was one of those things I really needed to notice at the time.
So I took a ton of photos at Zion National Park. Here are a few of my favorites:

The Quote Collector
My Writing 101 assignment for Friday was to start my post with a quote. I collect quotes. While many of the quotes I collect are because they inspire me, they don’t inspire me in ways I can really write about. Many of them just stir up deep emotions that make me feel like I should do something. I do love quotes though; I love that they can tell me what I’m feeling when I don’t have the words, or that they help me figure out what I’m feeling, or that they can guide me towards how I want to be feeling. These are some of my favorite quotes that I’ve collected recently:
The Chronic Canyon; Strength Through Illness
So sometimes you don’t realize what you need to hear until you say it to someone else. At least, that’s how it works with me a lot. When I am dealing with other peoples’ problems, I actually do pretty well and can think pretty clearly… but I am completely helpless at solving my own problems. And yes, they can be the same problems.
Her Fight Song, My Fight Song
I find this song ridiculously inspiring for myself. It’s kind of become like a theme song for me. I’m battling all these illnesses, but “I’ve still got, a lot of fight left in me.” Just in case you haven’t somehow heard it, take a listen, or at least read through the lyrics below!
The Strongest Souls
“Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.” – Kahlil Gibran
