Be Your Own Team
Your Always Have Been Some days… the hardest place to exist isn’t even in the outside world. It’s inside your own mind. Because when your body is already struggling, already tired, already in pain… the last thing you need is a voice in your head saying: “Why can’t you just be normal?” “Why are you like this?” “Why can’t you just push through?” And yet… that’s often the voice we hear the loudest. I’ve had those days. Days where my body feels like it’s working against me… Days where even the smallest things feel heavy… Days where I look at other people living their lives so freely and think, “Why is everything so hard for me?” And in those moments, it’s so easy to turn against yourself. To become your own critic. Your own pressure. Your own disappointment. But lately… I’ve been trying something softer. Something different. Instead of fighting myself, I’m learning to stand with myself. What if, instead of tearing yourself down… you spoke to yourself like someone you love?...
