I’m fine.
We all say it.
When others ask how we are.
When their burden is bigger than ours.
When we know they will only worry.
When we know they’ll nag if we tell them.
When we know they’re only being polite in asking.
When we can’t be arsed to explain.
When we need privacy.
When we know they won’t understand.
When we’re too embarrassed to explain.
We all say it.
……I’m fine.
