Something Isn’t Quite Right

Some weeks feel like fog, not heavy or dark exactly, just unclear. Like I’m moving through the days, doing what I need to do, but something in me feels… off-center.

This week has felt foggy for me.
Not in a dramatic way, just that quiet sense of something unsettled. I’ve been showing up, doing what needs to be done, but inside I’ve felt a little blurred. Off-center.
And maybe that’s why this week’s theme has stayed with me so strongly. Because even while sharing it, I’ve had to live it.

Thoughts In the Fog

Naming what I was carrying helped.
Not fixing it. Not explaining it.
Just calling it what it was:
I’m tired.
I’m waiting.
I’m uncertain.
I’m stretched.
I’m not sure what comes next.

And that naming? It brought me back to center. Back to truth. Back to God.

One of the hardest parts of healing, especially faith-based healing , is the temptation to rush past the murkiness.
We want clarity. We want certainty. We want a story that makes sense.
But sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is speak what’s true, even if what’s true is,
“I’m in the middle of something unnamed.”

A Week of Reflecting and Naming

This week’s reflections and morning meditation posts have circled that quiet truth.
We’re not lost.
We’re just human.
That line stayed with me all week.

What Helped Me This Week

I created a simple worksheet as a way to reflect on what I carry in the fog and what it means to name it without needing to solve it. If you’re in a fog of your own, maybe it will help you pause and breathe too. (The worksheet is included in this week’s email to my “Get Updates” subscribers. If you’d like to receive those weekly reflections and tools, you can sign up here.)

Looking Ahead: The “Not Now” Box

Next week I’ll be shifting toward something just as real: what to do with things we can’t process right now. The conversations we’re not ready for. The healing we’re not strong enough to touch yet. I’m calling it The “Not Now” Box and I think it’s going to be a good one.

Share How You Name the Fog

I’d love to hear what “Naming the Fog” stirred in you.
If you’re comfortable, feel free to share how you’ve named the fog in your own life or what helped you find your footing again.
