Through the life you live, it is inevitable that you will find yourself in a place or a situation where you need to find yourself a form of comfort, it could be anything. Picking up your results from school, sitting alone on the bus, laying in bed at night.
Comfort is important, and finding the thing that comforts you most is more important. For me, in those situations I feel better if I have long sleeves, as I hold onto them, or a person to ask for comfort. I like to have my music, which gives me confidence when I am out on my own or my books, my writing.
I know a lot of people need to have their confidence, and by all means need a form of comfort, even if it is just a tiny charm you have in your pocket. If I can't find a way to comfort myself before bed I can't sleep, especially if I sleep away from my bed at home.
At home, I have my favourite cushion, little LED butterflies on the window (the solar power ones) and also I need to know my surroundings. If I know them but aren't there often I still sleep awfully or struggle to sleep.
It's hard, but find a way to relax and let your body chill a bit. So close your eyes when you face your situation, take a deep breath and smile. Ignore those butterflies in your stomach and let yourself smile, because then you become stuck.
It's never bad to want something with you for comfort. You could be a grown man in his late 60s or something and I wouldn't judge you for carrying a teddy or a tiny charm in your pocket. And I cannot express this enough. If something gives you comfort, just do it, don't listen to anyone else gossip and know that it is 100% okay to stand out from the crowd. Be unique and carry it with you for as long as you can.
