Have you ever gotten tired of healing?

When I look back, I realize I went through healing fatigue, that stage where even growth starts to feel heavy.

I used to think it meant I was giving up, but it really just meant I needed rest.

Healing doesn’t always look like progress. Sometimes it looks like stillness.

Did you ever reach that point where you just couldn’t “work on yourself” anymore?
