rest & grace
just a daily reminder, in case you haven’t heard it today, that rest is necessary
I have a complicated relationship with rest. I have resented it in the past because when I am feeling low, all I can manage to do is rot away in bed.
Because of this, I have inadvertently come to associate rest with mental illness, pain & suffering.
In the process of showering myself with grace and forgiveness, I have come to the realization that what felt like rotting away, maybe was necessary for my body and mind to process the things I had been through.
So while I am in a different space in my life now, a more productive one, I might add, I am still tending to my relationship with rest & my past self.
I say all this to say, give yourself a break, today & every day

I love this soooo much! Rest is super important, and there doesn't have to be a "why" to it. Just because, is good enough!
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou yes that’s a wonderful point sun, we don’t even need a “why,” this is important for me to remember, thank you for sharing your perspective on my post 🙏🏻
