Good to be back

Hi there ladies! It's been quite a while (i know) I was just finding something that would inspire me to write again, lately I've been too lazy to write and I hate it. Thank God I've read something that would help me get into groove again.

Here it is

Super nice right? I just found it on my facebook, and I fell in love instantly. I just can relate so much, that is so me. I don't have to introduce myself, just read it and that is really is me. Thank you to whoever wrote it for me, haha!

I also happen to encounter an article entitled 

Read This When You’re Tired Of Everything

by Heidi Priebe

I know what it’s like to feel tired – and not just in the physical sense.

The world that we live in is an exhausting place to be. 

It is wearing. It is thankless. 

It is endlessly trying and scarcely rewarding. 

You’re tired simply because you live in it.

 You’re tired of loving too much, caring too much, giving too much to a world that never gives anything back. 

You are tired of investing in indefinite outcomes.

 You’re tired of uncertainties. Tired of grey.

I know you haven’t always been this worn out – that there was a time when you were hopeful and pure. 

When your optimism outweighed your cynicism and you had an infinite amount in you to give. 

I know you have been chipped away and worn down piece by piece – a broken heart here and an un-kept promise there.

 I know the world hasn’t always been kind throughout the games you’ve played and that you’ve lost more times than you have ever won.

 I know you’re feeling uninspired to try again. I know.

Because the truth is, we’re all tired. Every single one of us. 

By a certain age, we are all nothing more than an army of broken hearts and aching souls, desperately searching for fulfillment. 

We want more but we’re too tired to ask for it. 

We’re sick of where we are but we are too scared to begin again. 

We need to take risks but we’re afraid to watch it all come crashing down around us. 

After all, we’re not sure how many times we will be able to start over. 

We all think we’re alone in our exhaustion. But the truth is we’re tired of each other – tired of the games we play and the lies we tell and the uncertainties we present to each other.

 We don’t want to play the villain but we don’t want to play the fool either. 

So our guards go up. Our defences rile. 

And we take on the role that we loathe to see played because we’re not sure what choice we have left.

I know how impossible it can feel to go on trying and giving and becoming when you are exhausted straight through to the soul.

 I know that the cheerful ideals you were once promised now seem tired and hopeless. 

But here’s what I beg if you’re this close to giving up: give it one more try, with feeling.

 I know you’re tired of your attempts. 

I know that you’re at your wit’s end.

 But the truth about that second wind of passion is that you’re never going to realize you have it if you do not keep on running past your first.

We’re all more resilient than we think, and that’s an indisputable truth. 

There is always more love that we are capable of giving, more hope that we are capable of having, more passion that we’re capable of unleashing and flooding out into the world. 

We just don’t walk far enough down our own roads to reach the point where we’re seeing those actions pay off. 

We want immediate results and when we see none, we give up. 

We let the exhaustion stop us. 

We grow frustrated with the lack of feedback and we assume that means we have to throw the entire attempt right out the window.

Because here’s something we all loathe to admit – none of us are inspired every day. 

We all get exhausted. We all get discouraged. 

And we’re allowed to work on through those feelings. 

Just because you’re beaten down and worn out and sick of the life that you’re living doesn’t mean you’re not making a change.

 Every person you have ever admired has had times where they felt utterly defeated in the pursuit of their dreams. 

But that didn’t prevent them from reaching them. 

You’re allowed to stumble slowly towards your biggest transformations.

 It doesn’t always have to be a blazing, flagrant affair.

Some parts of life happen quietly. 

They happen slowly. 

They happen because of the small, careful choices that we make everyday, that turn us into better versions of ourselves.

 We have to allow ourselves the time to let those alterations happen.

 To watch them evolve. To not grow hopelessly frustrated in the in-between.

When you’re tired, go slowly. Go quietly. Go timidly. 

But do not stop. 

You are tired for all the right reasons.

 You are tired because you’re supposed to be. 

You’re tired because you’re making a change. 

You are exhausted for all the right reasons and it’s only an indication to go on.

 You are tired because you’re growing. 

And someday that growth will give way to the exact rejuvenation that you need.

I loved how the author pointed out all the different aspects of our life that in one way or another we get tired of. We reach a certain point in our life that we feel that we are not growing and we get bored from living the norms. We wanted to take a leap of faith but we're afraid of what we'll become. I felt that too and I know I will still feel tiredness, boredom because, we are just normal human beings. It is normal to feel that way but in the end it's our choice if we remain to be this way or take the challenge.

I learned so much from it I hope you do too.

Thanks,

Mamay
