Sleep when you need to sleep.

By Rebecca Twiss   Wed, Jun 30, 2010

Sleep when you need to sleep.

 

 

  

 

 

 

Sleep when you need to sleep.
Work when you need to work.
Eat when you need to eat.
Mourn when you need to mourn.
Smile any time that you can.

Bend if you need to bend.
Break if you are bent on breaking.
Pick up the pieces at your leisure.
Heal at your own pace.

No one can tell you who you are.
Stop trying to believe them.
I say Try - because it's an effort
to be anyone but who you are.

Breathe without thinking
Love without caring
This is the moment
You need to be in.
