Licorice Tea

I'd like to be pensive. I'd like to be thoughtful. I'd like to be insightful, intelligent, awake, healthy, beautiful, put together, motivated etc.

I think I'll settle for being kind.

I have 3 exams in 24 hours and a few more in the days that follow. I'm sick. But I have a cover of "Come Together" playing in my headphones and a sense of purpose, weary as it is. Five days to prove that I've learned something, become someone, am going somewhere.

If I've learned anything I've learned that these five days are going to pass no matter what I do. I think that is grace. I think I'll keep smiling until it proves otherwise.
