You’re trying your ass off
But for some confusing reason, the life you’ve been building—the life you’ve always wanted to live—is apparently becoming impossible.
Like it or not. And you don’t like it. That much is clear.
What’s also clear is that you’re noticing reflections of this impossibility in your relationships, like the ways people speak to you, or how they listen. Or how they fail to listen.
The cadence and depth of those reflections seem to be growing.
What’s happening has nothing to do with the amount of effort you’ve been putting in, because trying is practically your middle name.
But.
There’s no denying that something has shifted in your relationships, and there’s no denying the storm clouds forming overhead.
You may even believe you know what’s causing them, but nothing you’ve tried has made them go away. And sometimes? They really hang around.
It’s not just the darkness that’s concerning. It’s that it all feels like a storm you’re gonna have to battle by yourself, alone.
Maybe.
