So maybe what you need to hold on to is right now. I know I am being very fridge magnet-y right now, but just like the magnet that says FRIENDS ARE THE FAMILY YOU CHOOSE FOR YOURSELF, it’s tacky and nauseating but true. The present. You cannot control what happens tomorrow and no amount of yoga or starvation can change that. We need right now to take a deep breath and exist. And do what makes us happy right now. Instead of trying to make things seemingly better for whatever fictional person we imagine we will be in five years, we can focus on who we are now.
