This year has been really hard for me. There’s been mornings I wasn’t sure I wanted to keep going and a lot of nights that I’ve been exhausted but couldn’t rest. I put on a pretty good front. Only a handful of people have known about this until now.
It’s unfortunate that some people struggle because they can’t let things go and continue to carry anger and resentment.
