Even the strongest need a break

Even the strongest get tired of their responsibilities. They get tired of taking care of themselves all the time, they forget the commitments they made and the bills they have to pay.

They get tired of the independent life they chose to live. They get tired of everyone’s expectations and the number of people who count on them. They get tired of everything, but they can’t find the courage to ask for help because the world expects them to be okay without any help. The world expects them to overcome everything on their own.

Even the strongest need love. They don’t like loneliness, they don’t like rejection, they don’t like always having to be their own heroes.

• Even if it doesn’t seem like it yet, soon everything will make sense

They always save their day, cheer themselves up, are their best friends and sometimes their biggest fans, but they want to remember what it’s like to have someone do it for them once in a while.

They miss the support and comfort of having someone to lean on, who is by their side, someone who reminds them that they don’t have to do everything alone. They get tired of the emotional work they have to do to get up—sometimes they just need a helping hand.

Even the strongest break. When they have to hold the bar too long and they just can’t do it anymore. When they can’t get out of bed because their hearts are heavy, when they can’t think clearly anymore because their minds are scattered and their thoughts are confused.

When they feel like everything they’ve worked for is falling apart and when they feel their strength is often their curse, not their blessing.

Even the strongest need a break. They need someone to lead the way. They need to know that they don’t have to do this forever.

They need the pace of life to slow down so they can recharge their batteries and keep going. They need to feel that it’s okay to be vulnerable and ask for help and admit that some things are more than they can handle.

They need to feel like human beings too, not just robots who should always be okay and do the right things and walk away and stay positive.

Even the strongest feel drained. Of everything they have to do to keep that label and everything they have to do to keep living their best lives without people dismissing them or stepping on them.

Even the strongest get tired of being so strong because it was never something they were born with, it was something they had to develop because of all the difficulties they had to face and all the challenges they had to overcome and all the heartaches they had to endure. .
