STRESSED š„ŗ
I am actually writing this because, I am stressed out. I feel like Iāve been stretched to my limits and Iām about to burst open and spill, then everyone will get to laugh at me for not having my shit together.
Who am I?
Amara, doing so many things at the same time and failing time and again to do them all or do them well. Being so busy that other peopleās schedules look like a merry-go-round to me. Hell! Iām sure itās not possible that I can be the busiest person but how then is it that Iām almost always busy and almost always tiredš.
It sucks! Iāll tell you the truth, to have a list of important things and be hardly able to scratch the list.
To have myriads of expectations from family, friends, work, personal life and even productivity tasks and e no dey ever finish.
Is that why they say thereās no rest in this world?
I guess Iām even too tired to ask for answers.

There are a lot more detailed descriptions too but let me not bore you š¤
You could be in my shoes, trying to do so many things at the same time. Some for your family, some for the church, some for your friends, some for your workplace and some for yourself āļø
It would seem to you like youāre in a never ending cyclic corridor, confused yet enjoying the thrill of running around in circles, wishing youād see an escape at some point, maybe it could be some form of autonomy, or it could be money, āplenty moneyā, business breakthrough or career elevation š. I know that feeling of having elaborate plans in your head and facing so much difficulty actualising them.
But Hey,
Itād be okayš¤
You heard me right?
I wish you knew my voice, so you could hear me say this exactly how it sounded while I was typing š
Youād be perfectly fine!
Itās not the end yet and it could actually be worse than this, so be grateful for how good it already is š
Now, take a deep breathe and smileāŗļø
If you smiled, please tell me in the comments and donāt forget to clap as many times as possible, Your encouragements make me remember this medium app when my head is fullš¤£
Yoursš«
Amara
