I want to go out on the weekends, stay up late, and live it up like a 21 year old should. But I'm just so tired. I tell myself every night that I'll wait up two hours early the next morning to work out, read, and get up and going. But I'm just so tired. I wish I could find the motivation to get all of my work done ahead of time so I'm not having a breakdown when it's all due at once. But I'm just so tired. I wish that I could quit my caffeine addiction and function normally without it. But I'm just so tired. I have every intention to meal plan and eat healthy, organic foods. But I'm just so tired. My goal is to spend my free time doing something productive, not laying around watching Netflix. But I'm just so tired. I try to remind myself that this is just a phase I'm going through; that it'll be over soon and I won't be so swamped. But I'm just so tired. I know that I'll make it through all of this and that I'll come out stronger on the other side. But I'm just so tired.

If you're anything like me, day to day life is taking just about everything out of you right now. And it's so difficult, because you want to talk to people about it. However, when you try, people just tell you to get over it or offer meaningless words of encouragement. So, you just zip your lips and soldier on. You feel alone, but don't have the energy to truly reach out. But I want you to remember something: you are not alone. I know it may seem that way, but you aren't. Someone somewhere is going through the same thing. And maybe the people in your life don't really know how to help, but they still love you. And that means something. It means a lot.

So hang in there, soldier. You'll make it just fine.
