​Today I’m sharing about a struggle of mine most of you don’t know about. And to be honest, I don’t want to write this post. I’ve had it on my mind for months now, but I kept putting it off. Admitting weakness and brokenness is hard. It’s simple to state “yeah, I’m a weak and broken person,” but actually sharing my own specific, inner struggles is nerve-wracking.

But if I don’t, we all miss out on a lot—myself included. There is so much beauty and potential in sharing our hardships—more on that later. That said, here's (this part of) my story:

​It can be hard to find anyone or anything that’s constant and steady in today's world. The pace and mindset seems to be growing faster, more frantic, and more concerned with self. Things end just as quickly as they started, people come, people go. An idea springs up and gets suffocated by lack of success. So we move on. We get discouraged, we get frustrated, we get pushed too far, and we leave the situation.

Side note: I’m definitely including myself in this. I'm not writing this because I have it all together; I'm writing it because I honestly struggle with selfishness and inconsistency.
