that’s why u must walk so lightly ｜green to blue

_

It's dark because you are trying too hard.
Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly.
Yes, feel lightly even though you're feeling deeply.
Just lightly let things happen
and lightly cope with them.
I was so preposterously serious in those days,
such a humorless little prig.

Lightly, lightly - it's the best advice ever given me...
So throw away your baggage and go forward.
There are quicksands all about u,
sucking at your feet,
trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair.
That's why you must walk so lightly.
