Anxiety Attack

Anxiety Attack

Face aflush, heart just abeating,
suddenly the oxygen flow slows,
patience thins, brows furrow ...
another of life's unceasing blows.

Step back a minute and relax,
Breathe slowly through the nose.
When life gets tough, the tough
get tougher, as the saying goes.

Past accomplishments keep remembering,
take into perspective all the ups and downs,
ins and outs life keeps dumping
on the psyche of the world's clowns.

Life would be boring without change
some for the better, some for the worse.
Adaptability and flexibility
soften the blow of life's curse.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
