How often do you wake up dreading life? You look at the mirror with shame, guilt, and discomfort at who you've become. You feel stuck in your body, world, and routine that feels like it's never going to change until the day you die. You are hurting deeply inside when others don't see how you are misunderstood. You pretend to mask your insecurities, vulnerabilities, and weak spots to avoid criticism, judgement and admitting shame in how your life fell apart. Where you are roaming a world where you feel like an alien, and you struggle to find people who can relate to your tired, disgruntled, and painful existence. Let's find some ease in these fatalistic narratives, and know there's a place for us to all let go of the burdens we carry, decompress, and belong. After one night of watching a romance comedy, I contemplate my life's gaps and how I hope to fill my needs.
