The Sun Will Rise and So Will We

by Jennae Cecelia

It is not your responsibility to save everyone. Don’t put that kind of pressure on yourself. Do the best you can to spread your light where you can.

While you are picking up everyone else’s pieces, don’t forget you have pieces to pick up for yourself too. You can’t pour from a broken glass. Take time for you.

Sometimes you have to love people from a distance. You have the right to create boundaries. You have the right to not pick up the phone and listen.

I am afraid that I will let people down. I am the trunk supporting everyone’s branches and I don’t know how to stay standing.

There is nothing wrong with the seeds you are planting. You are just in an environment that doesn’t encourage growth. It is time to move somewhere you can fully bloom as yourself.

It isn’t that their life is better than yours, you just see them when their lights are turned on and windows wide open. Everyone has problems behind closed curtains.
