TIRED KIND OF TIREDNESS

There’s a kind of tiredness sleep can’t fix.
A heaviness that lingers in the bones,
in the heart,
in the places no rest seems to reach.

It’s the tiredness that comes from carrying too much—
smiling when you want to break,
showing up when you want to disappear,
holding it together when no one knows
how close you are to falling apart.

If this is you,
please hear me:
you are not weak for feeling this way.
You are not failing because you are worn out.
You are human.
And humans get tired.

So pause.
Breathe.
Lay the weight down, even if just for a moment.

The world can wait.
Your heart needs rest too.

And when you rise again—
because I know you will—
know that even this tired kind of tiredness
cannot dim the light that still lives in you.

Yeah, getting tired can feel like the whole world is against you sometimes, but remember, you're human. It's okay to rest, even for just a moment. You've got this.

Hey, feeling tired? I get it! It's okay to slow down and take care of yourself. Remember, you matter, and that rest is just as important as everything else we do. Took a deep breath with you ☀️

You're so strong for going through this. It’s okay to lean on yourself now. You’ve got this.

It's tough feeling all this weight sometimes. I know how you mean—I’ve felt that way myself a million times. Take some space, maybe just for a little while. You’re doing so much for everyone else out there, and it’s amazing how strong you are. But remember, you need rest too. Keep shining through, though—because even when you're tired, there's still so much light inside.
