Tell Me A Lie...
I work hard...
Every single day again.
It's the hardest job I have ever had.
Trying to get rid of all those irrational fears, negative thoughts, old emotions and unwanted behaviors I developed as a child.
I know I'm broken... but I'm giving it all I have to fix myself.
Life doesn't go very easy on me, but - truth to be told - I didn't always go easy on life myself.
It's a struggle.
And I'm thankful for every opportunity to learn, to grow.

But sometimes, only sometimes... I just want to be hold tight, and told that everything will be all right...



When I read that first line, I thought you were quoting Queen's "Somebody to Love." But, seriously, I think we all feel that way sometimes.
Maybe this will cheer you up.
Make the changes that you can and accept those that you can not and remember to love yourself, flaws and all because really you are okay! Be the one to give yourself that big hug and say everything is going to be all right!
Here's a cyber hug from me too! XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Thanks, @porters
I know this in theory, but putting it into practice isn't always that easy :0/
True!
1 !BEER Token for you
I am thankful for the challenges of life as well.
The main thing is not to give up. Yes, it’s hard for everyone, but then everyone has a period when you can exhale and say that everything was not in vain!)
Ture.... although the time to exhale has been long overdue for the moment....
You are not broken, you might be a little cracked, but aren't we all 😉

Thanks, @paulag
I know we are all, but I learned that some are less broken than others, though...😉
I was sorry to read this post @simplymike ...
... as I would imagine most of us, in our own way, have been there. I certainly know I have.
I came to the darkest place where I no longer believed I could "fix myself." Thankfully for me, I was met there by someone who told me the Truth. And my life eternally changed, at my acceptance of it.
Whatever your future course may be, for your sake, I hope the title of your post does not truly communicate your deepest desires. As we all learn, in one way or the other, lies only provide the briefest moments of satisfaction / contentment, before evaporating and morphing into something much closer to the unpleasant realities "behind the curtain" ...
I wish you well @simplymike. All the best to you, for a (truly) better tomorrow! 🙂
Thanks, @roleerob
I know it's not a solution, but every now and then, a little comforting by telling someone everything will be all right can take the pressure of for a short moment.
Okay @simplymike. Having been there myself, just sharing "from the heart" ...
I hope you get to feeling better!
Hang in there.

Thanks, @shortsegments. I will :0)
The scars of life cover us my dear but we have to be careful that they don't become scabs on our hearts. For then they numb our emotions.
I see here that your emotions are still alive and well little soldier and that you are brave enough to try and heal yourself.
In my own case I find my healing in helping others.
And there is nothing wrong in being wanting just to be held, even if it is only sometimes.
I hope and pray that you will win the battle.
Blessings!
Thanks, @papllioncharity

My pleasure. Hope you feel cheerful today!
Yes everything eventually becomes alright. I always tell myself during the toughest times, "This too shall pass."
... and if it doesn't pass, we need to change our interpretation of 'all right' 😉
We all a bit broken, now to mend it and get going again @simplymike challenges in life!
True, @joanstewart.
Though some are more broken than others, in my experience
🤗 hugs
Everything will be alright.

The thing about being broken is that we're all broken, and by being broken together we realise that it's quite alright to be who we are. You got this. We all do.
Thanks, @wwwiebe.
I know, though some appear to be less broken than others.
