Heather Boy
Step back. See how big the sky is.
What this friend is telling you
Heather Boy stands on a highland moor where purple heather rolls all the way to blue mountains, under the biggest sky you have ever seen. When a problem fills up your whole head — the group chat drama, the missed goal, the thing you said wrong — it feels like the whole world. It is not. Zoom out like the moor. There is still your family, and summer coming, and a hundred days ahead of you. Your problem is one little bush on a giant hillside.
Watch out for…
letting one bad moment pretend it is your whole life. It is lying.
Try this
When something feels huge, ask yourself: "Will this matter in a week? In a month?" Then take one big-sky breath.
