I THINK IT'S BRAVE

I think it's brave that you get up in the morning even if your soul is weary and your bones ache for a rest

I think it's brave that you keep on living even if you don't know how to anymore.

I think it's brave that you push away the waves rolling in every day and you decide to fight

I know there are days when you feel like giving up but i think it's brave that you never do

Keep going💖💖
