Life is one big fight #LOH287

Hi everyone, you're welcome to my blog.

This prompt suddenly reminded me of my favourite playlist wayback

“Life is one big fight by Tatiana.”

I've come to believe that life tends to break our pride especially when we least expect. We have a lot of plans, expectations and boom life happens we unexpectedly face disappointment.

Many people are used to this system while some people still struggle to move on.
I used to look into the mirror and tell myself “I'm strong and should never fall apart.” and I've been living with that identity for a long time. So long that it felt like I was wearing armor.

Funny enough life doesn't work that way.

There came a time things started falling apart. Things didn't work out the way I expected, the way I planned. Everything hit me at once, the pressure and so many responsibilities that I couldn't hold it anymore.

The feelings felt unfamiliar because I used to be the one who listens to others, I will advise them and assure them things will get better. I thought I was strong enough to handle my own problems too and that life can't break me.

But I was wrong. I tried to act like things weren't getting to me. I tried resisting, I would smile when I felt like crying but deep down I was exhausted. Tired of pretending.

I finally decided to let go when I broke down without resisting, without holding back. It wasn't dramatic, it was quite. I sat in a corner in my room and let it all out.

With that short moment life taught me that even strong people need to rest.
I realised that strong people also have weaknesses. And we need to fall apart in life to rebuild and to learn.

It wasn't easy accepting this new chapter of my life but with time i realised it's not weakness it's being me, and being real.

Thanks you for stopping by. Bye for now. 👋👋
