It’s been a while.
A whole year, actually.
I thought I’d come back with something clearer, something more put together — something that made sense of the time I’ve been away.
But life didn’t pause neatly for me to figure it all out. It just… kept going. Quietly, quickly, and sometimes a little heavier than I expected.
So instead of waiting for the “perfect” words, I’m coming back with an honest one.
There’s a quiet kind of guilt no one really talks about.
The kind where you hear good news and you’re genuinely happy for them… but there’s a small, heavy pause in your own heart.
Not out of jealousy, but from your own silent hopes — the ones you don’t always say out loud. The ones that feel a little louder when things don’t happen the way you’ve been praying for.
Some days you’re okay. You stay busy, you move forward.
And then some days, it just hits a little deeper.
If you’ve ever felt this way, you’re not alone. And it doesn’t make you a bad person — it just means your heart is holding something deeply important. 🤍
