Today’s prompt song is by Jason Mraz, “Details in the Fabric.”

“Details in the Fabric” – Jason Mraz.
——
It’s fine
Not to be fine.
Life isn’t usually fine.
Life often hurts, a painful time;
Not fine.
——
It’s right
To not be right,
To feel uncomfortable,
You don’t need to feel everything —
Is right.
—–
It hurts,
You don’t need to —
Fake it here, to pretend.
It’s okay to feel pain outloud,
Life hurts.
——
It’s weird,
No one’s normal,
But we pretend normal —
Exists, when we’re all our own weird;
Be weird.
—–
Okay,
You’re okay,
You can make it through and —
Find happiness hiding there,
Okay?
—–
You’re fine,
You’re stronger than–
You even think and you’ll —
Make it through the storms life brings you;
You’re fine.

Thanks Rosema. Yeah I think it’s okay to just be, however, that is. We all go through phases.

I appreciate it all, but I’m especially drawn to this part
You don’t need to feel everything —
Is right.
It’s too easy to believe our feelings do have to be right. This becomes part of our pose. You share much healthier writing overall about dealing–and living–with what is. That’s a service, Amanda!
