Don't Quit

Rest

Some One Is Listening

"If you get tired,

learn to rest,

not quit"

At the end of the day,

when you've finished work,

had dinner,

sorted out the 'family' and sitting down,

how do you feel?

Some feel this

at the beginning of every day.

However,

after a night's sleep,

resting and laying down,

and the alarm goes off (not too early hopefully),

ready for another day ---

how do you feel now?

It is so True.

Our bodies

and our minds

NEED to Rest.

It is the way we are designed.

Of course,

this can apply to a certain 'situation' we may be in ---

a job we are struggling with,

a school or college that we just don't feel we 'fit in',

or the more serious 'situations'

like caring for a sick relative or being sick ourselves

(or even domestic abuse of some kind).

Do Not Give Up!

These 'situations'

can make us very tired,

having to "fight" every single day,

all of the time,

and we could feel like just giving up.

Do not Give Up!

There is always HOPE

and sometimes

we need to find that quiet space of our own

to rest our minds (and bodies)

to give us the STRENGTH

to continue that day.

Also,

please do not forget

the many professionals out here who just want to help support you,

even to change your 'situation' (if possible).

You Are Not Alone!

And,

in a few months time (or even years),

when things have changed

-------------

you'll be glad you're still here

and didn't give up because

Life is Worth Living.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
