Sometimes we all need to take a break When the stress of life is too much to take A few days, a week, however long you need Take all time necessary, don't let anyone impede  Too much of anything can be detrimental  It takes a big toll, both physical and mental  It's okay to take a break, recharge, and unwind  We all need to destress and clear our minds  Mentally and physically, we absorb so much  From work to friendships, family, and such  We carry as much as we can possibly muster  And when it's too much, it becomes a cluster  Our schedules make it hard to deal with it all  And we bottle it up no matter how big or small  But the sooner we take a little time for ourselves  The sooner we can take it all off the shelves  It takes time to heal and unravel the mess And reaching out will always help us progress But sometimes we have to be a little selfish And look out for ourselves when things are amiss    Life is fic...

How much does it hurt when the truth is clear? Don't listen to irrational and idle chatter Think about whose opinion really matters If it questions the foundations of loyalty and trust Then weighing the pros and cons is a must So before all of it gets in your head Just ask yourself, who said?
