"Oh simple thing, where have you gone?"
These lyrics suit my life so very, very well right now. Everything has just been so damned complicated lately, and I can't control any of it. I feel like I've been trapped in a corner with no way out.
I enjoy simple things so much. The sound of my niece's laughter. The smell of a freshly cleaned room. The taste of a cold glass of water. The feel of snuggling with a dog. The scent of my husband's skin. The joy of spending time with my sister. The excitement of hanging out with my best friends. The freedom of losing my mind in a song. The relaxation I feel after a long night of writing.
I haven't been able to enjoy any of these thing lately. None of them. I feel the stress of everything in every single muscle in my body. I know God has bigger plans for me than this. I just need to push through this. I need to continue being calm and get through this so I can get my gorgeous, simple life back. I deserve simplicity.
