Exhaustion weighs heavily on my bones. The aches and pains remind me I am alive. That I, despite the odds, am still striving for more. I will not give up or lay down.
Struggling to sit in bed. I bring my laptop in front of me. Everything hurts.
My body may be broken, but my spirit isn’t. As long as I have a functioning mind, I will continue to create. My brain isn’t dead yet. I’ll pursue my writing, if only, to prove to myself and others that it’s always possible to fight your fate and strive for more.
