"Do not believe that he who seeks to comfort you lives untroubled among the simple and quiet words that sometimes do you good. His life has much difficulty... Were it otherwise he would never have been able to find those words." ~Rainer Maria Rilke (1875 - 1926)
So the Wills exam was today. It. Was. Bad.
Afterwards, I saw some classmates' comments about the exam on fb. I remembered this quote. Sometimes when I look around, I just see a bunch of people who seem to be breezing through while I struggle. There's a part of me that realizes that not everyone is perfect, but there is also a part that feels like they are while I'm not. Anyway, it's good to take a step back sometimes and realize that other people have problems too, you're not the only one who is confused, and while some people may be better than you at some things, you're better than they are at others.
Just breathe.
I like that quote!
