Description
We aren't always honest about how difficult normal human life is.
For the majority of people, sorrow, despair, anxiety, and mental illness are everyday experiences. While we have made tremendous advancements in therapy and psychiatry, the burden of living still comes down to mundane choices that we each must make—like the daily choice to get out of bed.
In this deeply personal essay, Alan Noble considers the unique burden of everyday life in the modern world. Sometimes, he writes, the choice to carry on amid great suffering—to simply get out of bed—is itself a powerful witness to the goodness of life, and of God.

This audiobook addresses a couple pieces that I never seemed to find in my sessions, meditations, or related reading material.
For me, this book addressed something from a different angle and in doing so helped me find some of the missing pieces I needed to hear. I now can look for a different perspective in crisis and crippling mental attacks.
An alternate point of view and Wow! I am shocked and amazed. I found what I was looking for and couldn’t put a “label” too.
I accidentally stumbled across this audiobook.
I was searching for a resource that I couldn’t seem to find the right “keywords” in the search bar.
Honestly though I didn’t expect many (if any) search results for:
• I am ready to die
• It is too much
• I am taking the Meds, seeing a physiotherapist and psychologist, read over two dozen books on relating topics… SO WHY DO I KEEP PRAYING TO THE LORD THAT “I am ready to go home. Please, please! I am HURTING please Lord! Please! Please take me home!”
The guilt always follows after these prayers, adding more more toxic fuel to the my current overwhelm and broken state.
I know the Lord will not test me with more than I can endure. I did not give myself life, so I most certainly do not have the right to take my life.
But it hurts…
I pray my apologies to God, for I know if I am still on this Earth then he has not yet completed His work in me.
But it hurts… and it has hurt for so long! The more I learn to recognize the triggers, memories, the signs of trauma, of abuse…
It makes it that much harder to go on. You can’t un-see the signs, can’t go back to ignorance.
We are a world of broken people, broken masterpieces… but as the Switchfoot song goes “but we didn’t paint ourselves”.
If I had remained in ignorance I am sure my body would have given out and I’d be dead now. It is by the grace of God that I had to confront the past. I have been hurting and healing ever since.
I never wish to go through what needed to be done, ever again. They were some of the worst years of my life.
I plan to listen to this audiobook again and again.
Thank you!!!!
