Some times simple questions become hard to answer.
“How are you doing?”
In my head I think “well, still pregnant.”
But it’s too much to say out loud.
Partly because it just requires too much energy to put it all into words.
Partly because my heart…ok maybe my pride… just can’t take pity look, the pity voice, the hang-in-there-slugger words.
It was super helpful for a while. I know people are in a tough spot. What are they suppose to do? They can’t say nothing but they can’t say anything right. They can’t win, I know that. It’s an impossible position.
So, I just say things like that in my head. It makes thing easier for both of us.
