Lay It Down"I feel so tired.
I feel so alone.
So many burdens
and mistakes I've made ...
Tired of carrying them
all my days.
I want to lay them down...
I've got to lay them down...
I'm going to lay them down...
Right now."
Are there things you have been carrying? Things that aren't healthy for you? Things you need to let go of ... things you need to let go of you?
Don't believe those thoughts that you deserve your burdon ... that you earned it. Don't believe that it's there to stay, that you can't shake it.
It's time.
Lay it down.
Take a moment soon to go to a private peaceful place where you can be alone and focus ... free of distractions. Put on some instrumental music, and close your eyes and try to focus on making these words count ... then say the above poem/lyrics out loud. Mean every word. You may want to take it a step further, and write down those burdens that you are releasing, and then physically 'get rid of them' by throwing the paper in the trash (ripping it first, if you'd like to ... to feel, maybe, that it's truly finished).
Take a some time afterwards to breath deeply, and picture yourself without those burdens anymore. Go back to life and reality in that new state.
