💜 Today's prompt: What is one thing you're carrying that you haven't said out loud yet?
"I've been pretending I'm okay for so long that sometimes I forget I don't have to. Today was hard. I cried in the car for 20 minutes before I could go into the grocery store. But I went in. That feels like enough for today. Some days enough is just surviving, and I'm learning that's okay..."
