I realized something about myself...With or without school, I'm still stressed. If I'm not stressed about school work, I'm stressed about actual work. I can never win.
But that's just the thing… I am winning. Every single day that I wake up breathing and healthy. And I, along with many others, take that for granted sometimes.
That being said, I am still human. So, when I'm having a not-so-great day, I like to think about the little things that make me happy.
Hopefully some of these things, if not all, also apply to you, too!
