An Exhausted Woman’s Gratitude Post

What do you write on a day when you’re utterly exhausted? When sleep didn’t show up last night and your day has been a non-stop whirlwind? Honestly, I could start this post by complaining about how tired I am, but I won’t.

Because despite the exhaustion, today gave me something else, a chance to slow down, sit in the quiet, and get lost in the stories shared here on this platform.

I’ve spent time reading so many beautiful posts, and it filled my heart in ways I wasn’t expecting. Some made me laugh out loud, and yes, there I was, sitting alone in the dark, giggling like a child. Others were so stunningly written that they took my breath away, filled with emotions that I could feel through the screen. And some posts made me stop and reflect, on life, on people, on how connected we all are, even in this digital space.

And that’s what this post is about: this community. A place filled with love, humor, reflection, and uplifting vibes. A space where people show up as they are, share their stories, and remind each other that we’re never truly alone.

So my thanks are for you, each and every one of you who shares your thoughts, your art, your humor, and your heart. You made my long, sleepless day feel lighter, and that’s a gift I didn’t even know I needed.

Later on, I’ll make myself some dinner and head to bed early, just because I can. And as I lay down tonight, I’ll be looking back on this inspiring day with a full heart, grateful for the stories I’ve read and the connection I’ve felt.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for showing up.

Here’s to more stories, more laughter, and hopefully a good night’s rest.

With love,
An Exhausted but Grateful Woman

I totally get how this online community can make even the toughest days feel pretty awesome and worthwhile. Just like you, I feel drawn to the stories shared here, those that make me laugh, think, and feel a real connection to folks I’ve never met but whose words hit home.

This place has a great atmosphere where everyone just comes as themselves, sharing their thoughts, art, and feelings in their posts. It's a good reminder that, even in this digital age, real connections and our shared humanity can still shine through.

Thanks for putting that into words so nicely. I totally get that feeling, but I’ve never been able to express it as well as you just did. Cheers to more laughs, good vibes, and restful nights ❤️

I feel you on the sleeplessness, as sleep evades me rather often. I'm happy to see you diving into Hive and its communities, and that you're experiencing such beautiful interactions and connections with people and their posts, bravo! I'm on four sovereignty-driven social blockchains, and nothing compares to Hive! May sleep be yours!😁🙏💚✨🤙

Do you have sleeping issues as well?

Often, yes, unfortunately. Sleeping here for me has always been pretty hit or miss. Even o nights when I do sleep well, it's usually only about 5 or 6 hours. Hive keeps me up quite a lot...lol! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
