'The Weight is unbearable', Pen on Paper

It is easy to let things get a little too much sometimes and let the weight of a situation bear down upon us. It is at these times that we we often find ourselves at a loss, unable to comprehend the magnitude of a situation. It can be the overwhelming sense of responsibility or the complete and utter lack of control we now have over the unfurling events. In which ever way you are affected it is difficult to shrug off that feeling of inadequacy, to alleviate the cloud that hangs over us and to overcome the intense pressure that we have allowed ourself to become a victim of. Whilst pressure is something that is necessary to spur us on and keep us challenged, the problem is that we often allow the pressure to build by taking on more than we can handle. The result is that we create the perimeters by which we are more likely to make a mistake or allow things to fall apart. The realisation of which only adds to the already unbearable gravity of the situation that has already caused us to fall into deep despair. The only answer sometimes is to seek help and it is in these moments that we realise the people that we can count on the people that no matter what they will drop everything and come to your rescue. The best thing about those times where the weight is unbearable is when we are finally able to overcome what ever left us in that state in the first place, the sense of relief that washes over us is euphoric, So it is important then to remember that allow it may seem as if everything is crashing down around you the experience is one that will eventually pass, one that will eventually dissolve.
