An honest account

Edited English version based on the Chinese original. Read the Chinese original

I am really tired today. The worst kind of tiredness is when I am emotionally worn out: I want to do things but do not have the strength, and people are still pressing me to get things done. That is when I feel most exhausted. I used to wonder why adults could break down over such small things, even to the point of feeling helpless. Now I understand, because I am feeling it myself. I am so tired. I am not trying to spread negativity.

I have had some time to settle down. My emotions are steadier now, and I am going to sleep.

Made it this far? Say hello.

Something resonated, raised a question, or sounded wrong? I would like to hear it.
