The Fatigue of Silencing Yourself

in #originalwordslast month

The Crowd Within Us

“Sometimes, we get the most tired by silencing ourselves.”

It’s easy to appear silent on the outside.
But what about the voices inside us? Suppressing them, ignoring them, silencing them…
That’s where the real tiredness begins.

As I wrote this quote, I asked myself:
“Am I really silent, or am I just pretending not to hear what’s screaming inside me?”

When was the last time you were silent, truly silent?
