The way I cried the first time I heard Tessa singing “knowing this is not enough is enough” :,) she released this one for me
Listening to Tessa's song brought me face-to-face with emotions I hadn't fully acknowledged before. The line “knowing this is not enough is enough” perfectly encapsulates the moment when you realize that continuing on the same path no longer serves you. It's a powerful feeling of both grief and empowerment. This resonated deeply with me, especially because of the lyric themes found in the song—hesitation, emotional conflict, and finally the decision to move forward, which reminded me of the struggle many face when deciding it’s time to stop seeing an old therapist or to make any big life change. The uncertainty about what is real and true, mentioned in the lyrics, mirrors the confusion and inner turmoil during transitional phases. From personal experience, walking away from situations or people that no longer benefit your mental health can be daunting. But songs like this help put those feelings into words, making it easier to accept that feeling uncomfortable or uncertain is part of growth. I found that embracing this discomfort allowed me to gain clarity and start new, healthier chapters in my life. For anyone navigating similar feelings, I recommend allowing yourself to fully experience these emotions. Try journaling your thoughts or discussing them with trusted friends or new professionals who can support your evolving needs. Music can be a powerful companion during these times, providing both solace and motivation as you determine what truly serves your well-being.
