Here’s a little reminder that everyone gets tired.<\/h4>\n

Everyone gets unbalanced.<\/p>\n

Maybe you’ll be touched deeply and start crying when you hear a rapper slinging rhymes, which is really weird, but I did that.<\/p>\n

Maybe you’ll just feel a heaviness in your heart that you can’t pinpoint. A slow burning ache, like the weight of the broken world is pushing in and perched on your sternum.<\/p>\n

Maybe you’ll see relationships so broken and confusing and full of turmoil that you’ll start to disconnect.<\/p>\n

Maybe you’ll snap at your kids, or get angry at a stranger whose story you can’t possibily know.<\/p>\n

And grace will leak away from you and your ideals will be shelved, and you’ll wonder if you’re really a person who still believes in goodness anymore.<\/em><\/h4>\n

Here’s a word for you…and for me….<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It hurts to be alive.<\/h3>\n

There are mysteries we want to know but can’t unravel.<\/h3>\n

You. Will. Get. Tired.<\/h3>\n

In this sorrow we are not alone, because we are the same.<\/p>\n
