There comes a time when you become
too tired anymore to try
to be other than you are.
When the small talk becomes deafening.
When the tension cannot be drowned no matter
how many times you hold it down.
It may mean No more often.
It may mean more time spent in
smaller circles.
It may mean those circles have
even fewer members.
Well then,
Let’s begin.
My favorite part of this is the line describing being too tired to be anything other than your true self. It’s so important for human beings (especially in our culture of demanding standards of what people are expected to be like) to accept themselves as they are.
Thank you Nicole. It has taken too long to get to this point but I think i”m finally here.
