The Weight We Carry That No One Sees
Some people seem to glow. They appear calm, accomplished, and creative. Others look at them and say things like: “I want to be like you.” “You’re always doing something amazing.” “It just seems to come so naturally to you.” But the surface rarely tells the whole story. Behind closed doors, there may […]
Describe Loneliness in Terms of Something Else.
Like a beautiful instrument left untouched — still full of music, just waiting for someone to sit down and listen — Jenny McClymont Loneliness is one of those feelings many of us carry, yet it is rarely named. It doesn't always show up how we expect — and sometimes, it hides in plain sight. […]
