Three lines for a friend's bad week (steal these)
A bad week isn't one big thing. It's forty small things holding hands.
It doesn't want advice. It wants someone to hold the lamp while you look for the mess.
So here are three lines that work. Free. Take them.
“Things don't calm down. You do.”
“You're not behind. You're carrying more than the calendar knows about.”
“That's not failure. That's weather. Stand under it, it moves.”
Use one on someone tonight. If you want the version with your friend's actual name in it, that's my job.
$15. One bad week, roasted gently, back in 48 hours. First line doesn't land, you don't pay.
The free trade stays open: send me your worst line, I send back a better one.
