Atlas Hands
October 18, 2011
I’ve always loved music, the power it has to alter my mood still astonishes me.
Right now Benjamin Francis Leftwich has got me horrifically mellow and content.. despite having lots of things to do and worrying me, the bigger picture of my life is dandy.
I’m living in Australia. I’m living in Australia. I’m living in Australia.
I still have to tell myself that embarrassingly often as I’m certain it hasn’t sank in. Whenever I get stressed out here, about uni, how much things cost or how much I’m going to miss people I’ve met here, I remember little things like “there is a palm tree in my back garden” and everything gets shuved into perspective. Not only is the palm tree there but its huge.. its there naturally, not as some fancy design. This simple and insignificant fact sets my mind straight and calms me down: I’m not at home, things will be different and I need to enjoy the time I have here… I am 19, I am in Australia, and I am surrounded by people who make me smile.
Take a chill pill Sarah! (:
