Maybe you have been telling everyone, โ๐๐ฌ๐ข๐บ ๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐จ ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฐโ even when deep inside, you know it isnโt.
Maybe you have been showing up, smiling, laughing with your friends, doing your best in school, and carrying on with your day while quietly dealing with things no one knows about.
And maybe, you have gotten so used to saying โ๐ฌ๐ข๐บ๐ข ๐ฌ๐ฐ โ๐ต๐ฐโ that you forgot you are also allowed to say, โ๐๐ข๐จ๐ฐ๐ฅ ๐ฏ๐ข ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฐ. ๐๐ข๐ช๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐จ๐ข๐ฏ ๐ฌ๐ฐ ๐ฏ๐จ ๐ฌ๐ข๐ด๐ข๐ฎ๐ข.โ
You do not always have to be strong.
You do not have to hide what you feel just to make other people comfortable. You do not have to carry every burden alone.
This ๐ฆ๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ ๐ผ๐ป๐๐ต, may the gold ribbon remind us that hope can sometimes look like a person who chooses to stay, listen, and care.
So please, check on your friends. Not just with a quick โ๐ฐ๐ฌ๐ข๐บ ๐ฌ๐ข ๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐จ?โ but with a heart that is willing to listen. Sit with them. Give them time. Let them know that they can talk without being judged.
And if you are the one who needs someone today, please reach out to a trusted person. You deserve to be heard, supported, and cared for.
You may feel alone right now, but you are not a burden for needing someone.
There are still conversations you have yet to have, places you have yet to see, and moments you have yet to experience.
