It’s scary when your heart wants more, but your mind feels empty

A woman rebuilding from scratch

What do you do when you feel extremely low but you have so much drive in you to achieve something?!

I completed all my daily chores- cooking, sending husband and daughter to work and school.

I made myself a cup of coffee and sat on my desk and started thinking what I should I get done today.

There was no answer.

Just blank space in my mind and a strange emptiness in my chest.

They say when you want to do big things in life, you need clarity about who you are, what you want to do and what makes you happy.

But right now, I’m unclear about everything. And it hurts to admit that out loud. It feels heavy to say I don’t know who I am or what exactly I want to do. Maybe it’s motherhood, maybe it’s life, maybe it’s just a phase. I don’t know.

Have you been there? What do you do?

Well, as of now, I am only looking for answers- in every situation, in every person I talk to, in every article I read, in every reel I watch, or in the random places.

Because, I am so so exhausted waiting for answers and now, I think I’m finally at a point where I’m ready for action… even if I have no plan.

Maybe that’s messy, maybe it’s reckless, but maybe it’s real.

This isn’t a motivational post or advice on how to handle tough times. Its just real emotions I am currently going through and a woman trying to build herself from scratch.
So if there is anything you resonate give me a thumbs up in the comments.



See you in the next one,
