What’s Your Emergency?

What's your emergency?
Is it an ex, retrenchment, unplanned pregnancy, broken relationship,
Joblessness, poverty, self-esteem, love, thoughts, depression, etc,
You know it deep down your soul.

What are you doing about your emergency?
Have you chose to ignore it,
Or look / ask for help,
Because every emergency needs some help from outside.

It doesn't matter if you are the tough one,
The one who offers solutions to other people's emergency,
One who always have everything figured out,
We all need someone once in a while.

It may be difficult to reach out,
Maybe you are used to doing it all by yourself,
You do and try your best to solve your problems,
Its okay to be fragile when need be.

Take care of your precious self,
Reach out for help from outside,
Two heads are better than one,
You don't have to suffer alone.

You may succeed to drown your needs,
But this will only make things worst,
Pressure will continue building up,
Then one day, you will have to burst.

Whatever will come out of that outburst,
May end up uncontrollable and too hard to contain,
Don't allow things to get there,
Allow yourself to be human.

No human is a superman/woman,
We need others to be great,
We are social beings,
And whatever is happening to you,
Happens to other humans too. 

If putting it down,
Or sharing it on a conversation,
Or crying it out,
Whatever works for you, go with that.

Take  care of your emergency,
Respond to it ASAP,
Its easier that way,
And always remember, 
You are special and limited edition.
