when life goes fast on you

Life's been going all fast on me lately, and I don't know when it will be slowing down again.
And the mere thought of continuing at this pace sends me into a panic.

I'm scared because I know life doesn't wait for you to live it.

A day begins and a day ends, and what you do in between is your problem.
And in the end, it's up to you to make your own day.

You cannot afford to pass over small joys,
or else you'll spend all your todays waiting for tomorrow,
and that's how a life is wasted.

Remember to remember that there is
blind beauty in the ordinary and you'll
miss it all if you forget
to
slow
down.

So now child,
go ahead,
give yourself permission to breathe.

You need the oxygen.
