I am Amanda, and most times I don't have an Hauwa to call or cry to. But what I do is to take a rest because I know I still have lots of food to taste, places to see, laughter to share and pictures to take.
Right now, I am resting. When i'm recharged, I'll go again.
Honestly, I believe today's newsletter was for me. I had just bawled my eyes out a couple of days ago feeling exhausted and overwhelmed. This was a very timely piece and I appreciate you taking the time to write it as it came to you.
Thank you so much for this Hauwa! It really spoke to me.
I’d just come out from a major state of depression this year. I guess I was just tired of things not going the way I wanted plus not really being excited about the new year. I had things I’d wanted to have achieved by 2023 but alas, the year came and I hadn’t ticked off most of my goals.
As someone with high anxiety, my mind was constantly in shambles due to worry. I became depressed and needed space from everyone. I took time to wallow in my shame, anxiety, and depressed state before finally acknowledging that I needed to do better for myself.
I realized that I had to take control of my life before it took control of me. I’m thankful that I went through that phase because it helped me realign my goals for this year.
Today’s newsletter just triggered some emotions, life can be so so overwhelming. It’s so sad to go through all these and literally have no idea how you wanna get out. This means a lot hauwa, we all need a you trust me❤️
Thanks for this. It's just what I needed. I have a post going out in a few minutes on how I'm trying my best to "rest, be vulnerable when I need to, reach out for suppot and cry when i have to" because just as you said, my life's just beginning to happen.
I know rest is needed but how do you rest when you know if you stop, coming back is going to be harder. The world won't pause and the problems will still be there. How do you rest when you're not sure it's going to be better after?😪.
Hey Hawabby, the world might not pause, the problems may still be there, but you’re also not the same. You’re coming back stronger and hopefully with more wisdom to deal with the beautiful uncertainties of life. And that’s what makes you you. You are Enough!
I am resting but I know it doesn't change anything. Maybe it gives me a little strength yh but most times it's only to exhaust it on the next big thing that comes right after and I just find myself crumbling the more.
