There is nothing more violent than a perfectly clear, beautiful sky when you feel completely worthless. Itโs like the weather is moving on without you, leaving you stranded in your own winter.
Today, I had exactly seven seconds of complete peace. The wind hit just right, and for a moment, the weight in my chest disappeared. I'm learning to survive on those seconds.
How can you tell if the world has ended or not? It comes down to the weather. As long as there are clouds in the sky, wind in the air, and leaves stirring in the breezeโas long as weather exists, the world hasn't ended.
Wounds don't always function as a problem to solve. Sometimes, they just function as the weatherโthe permanent atmospheric condition you learn to work around.
Some battles are worth fighting.
And some battles aren't.
Fighting certain things only stresses you out. Like seeking validation from people who have already decided they don't like you, no matter what you do.
It won't move them. Stop fighting it. And free yourself.
