It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

1. There are people who love you and want to be there for you.

2. It is OKAY to need alone time.

3. The outcome of the issue that you are stressing over probably is not as bad as you are imagining.

4. Just because you are feeling unmotivated does not mean you should give up.

5. God is there, even when you do not feel like He is.

Thank you.
