Running on empty

As I sit here snuggled up on my comfy couch, I've realized I'm exhausted. I'm tired. I'm empty. I'm running on empty and have been for a long time.

• The funny thing is, I don't have to always have it all together. It's okay if my floors are dirty and my bathroom needs to be cleaned.  I'm human (and so are you)) and everything will be okay.

Good night.

People

I'm not always sure how to make sense of what others say or why they said it "that" way. It's always a guessing game and I'm the only one playing the game. It's exhausting, really. See, I over analyze conversations in my head, on repeat for at least a day, sometimes. At best I feel tired from the wheel going and giving into the feelings... At worst I become self critical and beat myself up over what I should've done, said, or reacted.

Today was a little different, even though these thoughts and feelings creeped into my inner-self.

I remembered something so significant, so beautiful, and so true. I'm a daughter of our amazingly loving, God. I'm His and He is mine and I'll never be enough because He's enough. I'm made in His imagine, on purpose for a greater purpose and He would never want self critical Mauriah bringing her down.

We're all human and mistakes are part of our DNA and so is forgiveness and love...

Thank you for this sweet reminder tonight.
