The View From Here – Soul Tired

By: Carrie Buchanan

27/1/2022

Anybody else feel it?   Exhausted down to your core.  Not just physically tired, but beyond that.  That feeling of overwhelm.  Crying for no reason.  Not feeling like yourself but not sure why?

Soul tired.

Maybe it’s feeling so tired you just want to sleep all the time.  Maybe it’s body aches.  Maybe you feel highly emotional and cry easily. Feeling lonely, even around others.  Questioning who we can truly, who really cares, and who might have ulterior motives.  Maybe it’s anxiety, or feeling angry, resentful or jealous.

I can check off a lot on that list.  How about you?

Yesterday was Bell Let’s Talk day where the conversation focused on mental health and the importance of having those tough conversations.  Sharing your story and your struggles.  Letting people in to the hurt.  Being uncomfortable enough to share to help yourself, and maybe others in the process.

I appreciate those brave souls who share their struggles.  I saw it all over social media yesterday.  There’s something about sharing the load that makes it easier to carry.  It helps us all feel less alone.

So let’s do that.  Even with everything around us. Let’s keep talking and keep helping each other and keep lifting each other up so the weight is easier to carry when we do it together.
