Life will inevitably & eventually put you in crisis mode. Crisis mode is when you feel every negative emotion - like guilt, failure, shortcomings, finances, self-worth, anxiety & depression - on such a magnified scale that you wake up in a paralyzed, head-heavy fog, and then go to sleep each night in it, only to be waken up by it shortly after until it's time to wake up.

It's not that you don't know the solution(s) - exercise, healthy diet, Faith & praying, positive thinking, etc - and steps to repair the situation(s), it's that you've become so incapacitated by this condition that you no longer have the physical or mental capacity to take those steps. Even if you have a beautiful, innocent and happy daughter tugging on your hand to come play while you remain paralyzed mentally & physically.

I'm grateful. Here's why👇

It is during these moments you learn to recognize what peace is when you have it, what a friend is when you have one, what love is when you are in it, where your strength is, where your weaknesses lie, what forgiveness feels like when you receive or give it and how completely meaningless material items are.

Why am I posting this? Because there are millions that are not. There are millions of people just like me that feel like they've run out of options, without possibility of redemption or ever functioning on a level of peace ever again. Now add into the equation that we've entered a time of complete social isolation and account for how many additional individuals are probably feeling this way. This is also the reason I've never held back in my songwriting because as much as a song could save me on a bad day, I know that it has the potential to save countless others when listened to in a time of need. Have you ever had a song pierce your heart because it was exactly the song you needed at the moment? Best feeling ever.

I'm gonna be ok. And - whether you're a mom, dad, brother, sister, single, married or feel like no one else in the world has the same situation as you - you're gonna be ok too.

Hold on a bit longer, clench onto the ones you love and do the things that make you feel at peace. God bless. 🕊️

I read an article that says when someone is struggling, all they often need is 8 mins with a friend to get back on track.

Never underestimate the power of reaching out when you’re struggling. I know it’s hard and we want to disappear sometimes. But just a few minutes with a friend could get you back on track.

I have 8 minutes for you.
