Heading into the last week of July.  Life can be both wonderful and overwhelming at the same time.  I keep looking for a pause button but whenever circumstances force me to pause, I am uneasy and anxious to get moving again.  So, I try to find peace in the unease and take comfort knowing that anything that doesn't get done will either get done in its own time or didn't need to get done after all. 

Featured Friday Playlist recap (part 2) (songs 11-14):

11. "Levels" by Ifjams
