Life is hard. Sometimes we get lost and don’t know how to keep going. Sometimes our feet feel weighed down by lead and each step is exhausting. 

What if we weren’t afraid to say that? And what if we let others do the same? 

Everyone else seems to have everything together. I barely manage to brush my teeth each day. What is wrong with me?

What if we weren’t afraid to hear it? 

What if we didn’t respond with “look on the bright side”, “don’t stress” or “you’ll be fine”? What if we let their pain and fears sit with us for a while? Could we see each other, really see each other – and feel a little less alone?
