THIS too...shall pass...

For all of you suffering from social anxiety, I really want you to hear me out on this one.

Social anxiety is a condition. It is said to be part genetic, but it is mostly learned. Therefore - for many of us out there - we can unlearn it. It is a condition that will pass...if we allow it. It's just a condition, just like when you pull a muscle or get a bruise, and it can pass right through your state of being...you will still be the same person, with the same personality...but without your conditioned limitation. Can you imagine that? That is your destiny.

Please read this and take the lesson to heart.

RIGHT ON BROTHER!!! I LIVE FOR THAT DAY! (this is not sarcasm, I am just demonstrating my determination & enthusiasm)
 
Yeah, it CAN pass.

Sure, nothing happens completely independently. It will take effort. It may even take death. But things do pass...this can be seen as something to be happy or sad about...depending on whatever it is that is "passing," and what makes it pass. But if you learn to take impermanence as an absolute truth - which it is - then it puts you in a great position of power over your life. Nothing lasts forever.

I believe that it's something that can pass with effort.When i get rid of it though i don't want to forget about the lonely miserable depressed days and the embarassing moments i had because of SA cause they are a part of me and probably they'll make me like life even more as things get better

I turn my back to the wind
To catch my breath
Before I start off again.
Driven on without a moment to spend
To pass an evening with a drink and a friend

I let my skin get too thin
I'd like to pause
No matter what I pretend
Like some pilgrim
Who learns to transcend
Learns to live as if each step was the end

(Time stand still)
I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
(Time stand still)
See more of the people and the places that surround me now
Time Stands still
Freeze this moment a little bit longer
Make each sensation a little bit stronger
Experience slips away
Experience slips away

Time Stands still

I turn my face to the sun
I Close my eyes
Let my defences down
All those wounds that I can't get unwound

I let my past go too fast
No time to pause
If I could slow it all down
Like some captain, whose ship runs aground
I can wait until the tide comes around

(Time stand still)
I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
(Time stand still)
See more of the people and the places that surround me now
Freeze this moment a little bit longer

MAKE EACH SENSATION A LITTLE BIT STRONGER

Make each impression, a little bit stronger
Freeze this motion a little bit longer
The innocence slips away
The innocence slips away...

Time stands still
Time stands still

I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
See more of the people and the places that surround me now
Time stands still

Summer's going fast, nights growing colder
Children growing up, old friends growing older
Freeze this moment a little bit longer
Make each sensation a little bit stronger
Experience slips away
Experience slips away...
The innocence slips away.
