There comes a moment when even strength needs to rest.
Not because it’s weak, but because it’s been carrying too much for too long.
We’re taught to hold it together, to stay calm and in control.
But emotions don’t disappear when we ignore them. They wait.
Emotions are like waves. You can ride them without mistaking them for the ocean.
The feeling is real, but it isn’t the whole truth.
You don’t need to fix yourself.
You only need to stop interrupting what’s natural.
Let the emotion move.
Let the body lead.
And if you can’t welcome the feeling, notice the part of you that resists.
Sometimes what returns isn’t peace or clarity.
It’s a simple quiet that feels real.
And that’s enough.
