Dead and Thriving
Dead and Thriving
Motherhood is both the fullest and the emptiest you have ever felt. It is carrying a love so vast it threatens to burst from your chest, yet feeling the hollow ache of the pieces you have given away. It is the longing for space and the instant pull of missing them when they are gone. It is the exhaustion of never truly resting and waking each day, bone-achingly tired, but somehow more alive than ever—seeing the world anew through their eyes, where even the smallest moments shimmer with wonder.
It is being needed in a way that both grounds and consumes you. The weight of small arms around your neck, anchoring you to a moment that is already slipping away. It is the push and pull, the joy and the ache, the surrender and the becoming. A love so big it is both everything and not quite enough to hold onto time.
