Some days, staying is the only strength
Today I don’t have answers. Only slow steps and the need to not hurt myself too much while I keep going.
I laugh with others, but inside I carry a weight that doesn’t know where to rest. It’s strange how the world keeps moving even when you are standing still, trying to understand what is left.
I’m not healed. I haven’t arrived anywhere. I’m just learning how to stay where I am without apologizing.
There are moments when I feel empty, others when I feel everything at once and it takes my breath away. Both are frightening.
But tonight I know one thing: I’m here. And even if I’m shaking, I didn’t leave myself behind.
Maybe strength is not always moving forward. Maybe sometimes it’s staying without stopping yourself from feeling.
