Empaths: I know you’re weary

Being an Empath is a difficult thing.

It’s tiring. Sometimes you feel like you’re on the same path you were when you first began your journey: Retreading the same old grounds.

Sometimes it seems that no matter how much you do, no matter how much you try and no matter how much you strive to make a difference, it’s all futile.

Being an Empath can be challenging, exhausting and depressing.

We, as Empaths, have a tendency to take on the negative and overlook the positive.

Yes, we do get joy from the good we see and receive, but it’s short lived. It only takes one negative comment to pull us back down again.

Being an Empath is a path that can be both draining and wearying.

There are always others who try and tear you down and invalidate you. There are always those who seem to dismiss all the progress you’ve made, all the work you have done and all the sacrifices you make.

I know it’s hard. I know many are tired. I know they wish they were anywhere but here.

Even I wonder if it’s worth it at times. But I can’t give up. That is not an option. Even when the darkness is at its greatest, I will push on through because it’s all  I can do.

I owe it to myself.

And you owe it to yourselves.

Empaths, remember you are not alone. You may feel like you are, but I promise you, you are not.

I know you are weary, but our time is coming.

Sometimes you’re forced to take a break

Sometimes you are meant to have some downtime, but you don’t take it because something always seems to come up.

It’s like you’re rushing from one fire to the next.

I have just completed four weeks of leave, but I still wasn’t getting any real rest for three weeks of it.

E-mails keep coming in asking for help. People have questions. Situations in the chat room that call for attention and so on.

Seems that my higher self decided that if I wasn’t going to take a break, it would force me to take one. And it did.

Due to an infected finger, typing became very hard and painful. I was forced to minimize what I did at the computer.

For those wondering, this blog will resume in due course. In the meantime, remember, there’s always the chat room and 200+ other blogs to go through if you’ve not already seen them. 🙂
