"Stay Calm" by Kristy

You know the popular expression "when it rains it pours"? Well that is how I would sum up the last couple weeks for me. It's easy for many little things to go wrong creating nothing but a black cloud over your head.
Over a year ago my yoga instructor said something that has stuck with me and runs through my mind, especially when things seem to be going wrong. She said, "stress is when you resist what is" and that expression has universal truth to it. It can apply to anyone, anywhere, no matter what situation they're going through. Everybody goes through hard times but the key to getting through it is not letting it defeat you. You can make any bad situation worse by stressing over it and wishing things were different. No matter how tough things can seem, hold your head up high and let the storm pass.
