breathe from Routine Distractions by Dr. Stonaker

Life can sometimes feel overwhelming. After losing my job as a music instructor following treatment for mental illness, I cared for my mom, my best friend, during her final weeks battling lung cancer. Her passing has left me struggling to cope and I still grieve her loss, as everyone does in their own way. Her last words to me were, "don't forget to breathe," (which was what I reminded her to do every time we got out of bed to move around a little before she was no longer able to). This track makes me tear up at the end every time. Love on your loved ones while they’re here. The flamingos are my mom.
