Sometimes life can be tough. Whether it's work getting you down, life at home, or everything in general.

I know how it feels to feel helpless and unwanted. I know how the stress of work and home life can sometimes be overwellming. I know how hard it is to get that message across to the people in your life. As men we are expected to just keep going regardless of what is thrown at us.

I was at my lowest point a few years ago and I heard something so simple, so basic, it did literlly saved my life. 

"Get up and make the bed"

I know it sounds stupid but getting off the bed and making it is an accomplishment. And once you have accomplished one thing, try another and another. Slowly I rebuilt my life and am growing stronger every day. 

Do I still strugle, HELL YES. But the simple mantra of "get up and make the bed" is a constant in my head.
