And my inner voice at this time whispers:
"Please, can I just lie down and look at the ceiling?.." 🫠💤

It seems like everyone around is going somewhere, planning something, hugging someone and drinking iced latte against the backdrop of palm trees. And I'm sitting at home with my cat, in a stretched-out T-shirt, and the most I can do is crawl to the shower. 🐈☕🛁

I realized: it's not laziness. It's burnout.
A quiet, internal one.
Burnout not from work, but from "having to be." You need to be active. Cheerful. Energetic. Interesting. Perfect. 😵‍💫

And I just want to be. Without prefixes.
Without plans. Without an automatic smile.

What do I do to recover?
✨ I stop pretending that everything is ok.
💧 I drink a lot of water - just water, without lemon or embellishments.
🧘‍♀️ I breathe deeply.
📴 I turn off stories and turn on reality: it is quieter, but sincere.

And at some point I notice:
a sunspot on the floor ☀️
smells like apricots 🍑
silence - does not scare, but heals.

Sometimes the most important thing you can do is nothing.
Just be near yourself.
No pressure. No expectations.
Just live. 🌿
