Anxiety, my dear old friend, you have come to visit me today.

You have shown me that you want to be acknowledged and that you won’t go away.

It is okay.

I won’t force you to leave but please know that it’s not easy when you are around.

You make me feel bad.

You make it difficult for me to function but I promise I will keep on trying.

I will give you a part of my life if you promise to give me my space.

Give me room to breathe.

I really need to breathe,

I have put the broken pieces together but will leave the cracks as scars dedicated to you.

You have also helped me grow as an individual.

You have brought me beautiful angels that surround me with thoughts of love and light.

Anxiety, don’t you see the positivity you have brought to my life?

I would like to thank you for the bonds made stronger because you were around.

Thank you for the opportunity to make living with you tomorrow far better than it was today.

Tomorrow living will be different.

Hello Alana that sure fits the bill of finding beauty:) Anxiety is a mystery affliction a subtle tap of your view and an uninvited shriek on some days. but inside it is usually a message and it seems you have heard yours!

Sometimes the toughest situations can turn into something good, but seeing that good is a challenge that you have faced and conquered.
