"Some days, survival is enough." 

Welcome, fellow griever.
This is your Daily Nugget from me, Melissa, your host of The Leftover Pieces.
Today we will share a moment of presence, a breath of truth, and a reminder.
Lean in with me ---

Not every day will be a day of breakthroughs or big steps forward. Some days, breathing is the accomplishment.

 "Some days, survival is enough." 

Grief takes energy—more than most people realize. There will be days when your body and mind have nothing left for anything beyond the basics.
 And that’s okay. You don’t have to live every day as a monument to progress.
 Some days are for simply existing. For staying hydrated, for making it to the end of the day, for resting your head on the pillow knowing you did what you could.
 These days are not failures. They are part of the rhythm of healing—a rhythm that allows space for stillness as much as for movement.

 You are still here. You are still loving them. And on the hardest days, that is more than enough.

 Breathe deeply.
 You are allowed to set down the weight, even for just a moment.
 What you know in your bones is unshakable.
 The journey you’re on is sacred, even when it feels lonely.
 I’ll meet you here again tomorrow. Until then, keep going. Talk Soon
