Lately, I’ve been feeling numb — not sad, not happy, just here. It’s like I’m existing but not really living. Some days I wake up and go through the motions, but inside, it’s quiet. Too quiet. I used to cry about everything, but lately, even my tears feel tired.
I think sometimes life just gets too heavy. We carry so much pain, loss, disappointment, heartbreak until one day our hearts decide they’ve had enough. And instead of breaking, they just go still. That’s where I’ve been lately… in that stillness.
But I’m learning something important: numb doesn’t mean broken. It’s your heart’s way of protecting itself when it’s had enough. It’s your soul saying, “You’ve been strong for too long, now just rest.” And even though it’s uncomfortable, it’s still part of the healing process.
Healing doesn’t always look like smiling or moving on. Sometimes it looks like silence. It looks like sitting in your pain until it starts to make sense. It looks like learning how to breathe again when everything inside you feels stuck.
If you’ve been feeling this too, just know you’re not alone. You’re not losing yourself. You’re just in a space between breaking and becoming. A space where God is still working, even when you can’t feel Him.
You So for now, I’m choosing to rest here. To let the quiet teach me. To trust that even when I feel nothing at all, God is still healing what I can’t see.
🦋 Sometimes the stillness is just the beginning of peace.
