Today.



Today I am tired. My body is tired. My head is tired. My spirit is tired. My heart is tired.
Too much activity.
Too much thinking.
Too much disturbing news.



Sometimes- no, many times- I wish I were not so sensitive. So easily bruised. My efforts result in aches, and I don't see the gain.



I am tired, but not overcome. I refuse to be beaten down. I will stop. Breathe. Rest.



Today I will only let the good in. Only that which lifts up. Energizes. So that tomorrow I can again rise to join the challenges which refuse to go away.



I am not overcome.
