The Weight We Weren’t Meant to Carry Alone

Some things don’t get easier.

But choosing to do them anyway does.

Maybe that’s the part no one talks about—
not the weight itself,
but the choice to carry it differently.

And sometimes, it’s not about being strong.
It’s about remembering this:
you’re not meant to carry it all alone.

We put on our armor like we’re superheroes—
but we’re just human.
Getting through one moment at a time.
One day at a time.
Forgetting, sometimes, that we don’t have to do it all.
And we never had to do it alone.

Maybe that’s when things begin to feel lighter—
when everyone picks up a piece,
and the weight becomes something shared.

Sometimes strength is simply sharing what was never meant to be carried alone.

Just a thought.
