Every day, any day is a good enough day to ask someone “how are you going?”
Any day is a good day to talk about the things you ordinarly shy away from.
The tough stuff. The hard stuff. The not so easy stuff to raise and ask.
I’ve already talked about being sad and lonely. I know a lot about sadness.
That this is ok. This is normal.
There are days I feel sad. There are days I feel lonely.
It is about being real with yourself.
But not everyone can cope the way I can. Even though sometimes I think I think I am not coping, floundering, drowning, just floating. Like yesterday. I was kinda drowning, just getting by. Absolutely exhausted.
But this is okay. I know it is okay.
But we need to talk. We need to listen.
So I don’t need to make this any more sombre, sad and depressing. I want you to come back and keep reading. I don’t want you to think I am flooding you with all this and you are saying, “Tahlia, just shut up already”!!! (and if you are thinking this, maybe this is ok too?)
Just asking means a lot.
What will you ask today?
