It's already mid week and the sun is shining, So don't waste your precious time whining. It's Wednesday May 23rd, Time to make your voice heard.

Write here, and write away the careless sighs in your story of devastation. You could do away with a little less on your shoulders now.
"Maybe I'll have a look at that tomorrow" I hear this phrase a lot, and it seems very common for people to have burning dreams or ambitions that they never actually act on.
