I didn’t feel like being strong today.
Not weak either.
Just uninterested in effort.
There was a time when mornings demanded courage —
to prove something, to move fast, to be seen.
This one didn’t.
I noticed that strength has become overrated.
It’s loud. It performs.
What helped instead was honesty.
Admitting I didn’t want to fight the day or fix it.
If you’re reading this from another country, another hour,
and today feels flat — let it.
Not every morning needs a spine.
Some mornings need a chair and silence.
