Chosen Lyrics:
“I can do it
I can do it
I’ll get through itBut I’m only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I’m only humanAnd I crash and I break downYour words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
‘Cause I’m only human, yeahI’m only human
I’m only human
Just a little humanI can take so much
Until I’ve had enough”

Hey everyone! Welcome back to another SADIJ3! It may even be one of the last ones for this month. 🙂
I first heard this song actually sung in my last hospitalization. It’s an emotional song and it’s mainly about knowing your limits as a person and that we’re all only human. Sometimes we expect more out of ourselves like we’re the output of machinery than we deserve to, since that pressure is unattainable and we are imperfect beings with a lot of thoughts and emotions and behaviors that sometimes conflict in our lives so we have to take time out to become aware of them.
Basically, we’re all just works in progress. Our stories aren’t ending yet, and so we’re busy writing up the chapters and filling up the pages.
It’s going to be okay, we just have to get through today, get through this tough moment, and everything will settle once again. Radical acceptance, is all 😉
Thanks for checking in!!
