When you lead your life through circumstances you did not ask for or desire, your energy gets depleted by trying to stay the course, even in the best circumstances. It can feel taxing, especially for the achiever in you. I share this with you, because it is what I am living with and managing through. I know I am not alone, so I wanted to share some of...
