no matter where you're at in your life, there's always time for things to improve. even if you feel lost, stuck or left behind, you have the time to build a life you want. you may not get back the years you've lost, but you will have many years to live contentedly. there is more than this darkness & you have the time to see what else there is, in whatever form that is for you. simply put, life is not meant to be this hard. things will get easier, softer, brighter.

Just a friendly reminder that sleep is one of the most important things to learning/improving at a skill!!
Your brain literally uses sleep to move all the things you learned that day FROM temporary memory TO permanent memory.
