Why are you so tired?? 🥱

Over the last few days, I’ve had a few people ask me “why are you so tired?”

Interestingly to me, I don’t feel tired. At first thought, I wondered maybe if I was and didn’t know. I had, after all, just come from a busy and intense work environment days earlier. When I sat with it, I still didn’t believe I was tired.

And then it hit me…

I am not tired. I am calm and at ease. And the environment around me is very fast paced and frantic. The common person is drained and fatigued, pushing their adrenal loads to the limit. And this has become their normal…

And I don’t fit in that normal.

My “normal” state of being at ease is comparatively seen as tired in regards to the default norm of over-stressed or burnout.

In the view of many, I am tired. In the few of the tired, I am alert. In the view of me, I just am.

How do you wish to be? 🤔
