The Weight We Carry

Before the WeightWe all carry something. Some of us can name it easily-a loss that won't let go, a dreamthat hasn't yet arrived, a hurt that refuses to heal. Others can't quitedefine it, but they feel it all the same: a heaviness in the chest, aslow exhaustion in the bones, a shadow that follows just out ofsight. Whatever form it takes, the weight shapes the way we walkthrough the world.
