 Wisdom by  Matthew Kimberley

A very wise friend of mine gave me some great words of advice yesterday.  He said to me, 

"Relax." 

This statement, as simple a message it is, is complex in meaning.  I've realized that it's important to keep all the little things in perspective.  Ask yourself, Is this really worth stressing over?  Does this even matter?  Will this matter in a month? A year? 5 years?  So don't forget to breathe and keep in mind what's truly important in life.
