This is how we do it

The heart forgives, yet doesn't forget

Screaming into the void... 😔

Is not just hers. 

Is his and hers and theirs and ours. 

It's no wonder we're so tired.

How are we doing? Not well 😐

That the burden falls solely on me, someone already living with a post viral illness feels rather unjust...

This article was taken from Instagram and although they're not my words,  they're worth sharing.

(struck with virus mid March 2007, I've never recovered, although the virus was gone within 10 days, a plethora of symptoms remained)
