It&#8217;s from his first year in college. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I love this! There are so many times when life seems overwhelming and I just want to get away&#8230;when things feel like they are piling up and I just need to escape. To find a Sanctuary. A shelter from life&#8217;s storms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/lighthouse.jpg?fit=640%2C426\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1542\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/lighthouse.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/lighthouse.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/lighthouse.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/lighthouse.jpg?resize=1024%2C682&amp;ssl=1 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And you know what&#8230;sometimes that&#8217;s just what you need. Take a step back and re-evaluate what&#8217;s bothering you.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n\nI&#8217;m not sure I&#8217;ve interpreted this correctly but that&#8217;s what it makes me think of. \n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So when I&#8217;m feeling overwhelmed, here&#8217;s a few things I do: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Journaling<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This has become my main coping mechanism. By writing down my feelings and getting them out of my head, it has helped tremendously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make a To-Do List <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I&#8217;m feeling overwhelmed, making a list of what I need to do makes me feel better. Similar to journaling, when it&#8217;s on paper, I can quit obsessing about it. I&#8217;m able to see it, prioritize what&#8217;s important then address it. I love crossing things off  my list. It gives me a sense of accomplishment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to <em>Go to the Grocery Store,<\/em> <em>Go to the Bank<\/em>, etc., I&#8217;ll add the things that are really stressing me. Things I should be able to remember, but don&#8217;t. Like <em>Feed the dog.<\/em> Even though I walk by their dish 50 times a day, when I have a lot on my mind, I just can&#8217;t remember. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Take a Time Out <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meditate. Walk. Exercise. Take some deep breaths. Whatever you need to do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When my anxiety is at its peak, my family understands when I say, &#8220;I need a time out&#8221;. They would much rather me take a few minutes to myself than to lose it with them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lastly, if all else fails, take a nap! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Delegate<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you look at your list, if it is really too much to do, ask for help. Enlist your family or friends. Get a baby sitter if necessary.  There is no shame in admitting you can&#8217;t do everything. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I used to run away from things<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I used to run away from things&#8230;a lot. I&#8217;m not talking about taking a step back but withdrawal. The bad thing about this is whatever you were running from will catch up with you. If you are at the point that you just can&#8217;t deal with things, find someone to talk to. A counselor, Pastor, Doctor, or a friend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.comwp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/River-1024x576.jpg?resize=770%2C433&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/River.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/River.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/River.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/River.jpg?resize=480%2C270&amp;ssl=1 480w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/River.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Life is not always easy. Make sure you have a support system that you can depend on.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I feel so blessed to have found this today. I&#8217;m not sure what inspired my son to write this or if it was just a random assignment, but it touched my soul and stirred my emotions.  I&#8217;m proud of him. He&#8217;s smart, and sensitive, and a little too serious sometimes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I want the world for him, and I hope he doesn&#8217;t run. But if he feels he needs to, I hope he knows he can run here.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"likebtn_container\" style=\"\"><!-- LikeBtn.com BEGIN --><span class=\"likebtn-wrapper\"  data-identifier=\"post_1525\"  data-site_id=\"5bf2c84f6fd08bf47c728639\"  data-theme=\"disk\"  data-show_dislike_label=\"true\"  data-counter_type=\"subtract_dislikes\"  data-style=\"\"  data-unlike_allowed=\"\"  data-show_copyright=\"\"  data-item_url=\"https:\/\/chikchikchicken.com\/index.php\/2019\/03\/27\/the-run-an-inspirational-poem\/\"  data-item_title=\"The Run ~ An Inspirational Poem\"  data-item_image=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/run.jpg?fit=770%2C515&amp;ssl=1\"  data-item_date=\"2019-03-27T20:00:27-05:00\"  data-engine=\"WordPress\"  data-plugin_v=\"2.6.54\"  data-prx=\"https:\/\/chikchikchicken.com\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php?action=likebtn_prx\"  data-event_handler=\"likebtn_eh\" ><\/span><!-- LikeBtn.com END --><\/div><p>The Run My mouth is dry And I begin to sweat.
