Ed still stressful today

There are days when the weight of life shows itself in the smallest of tasks. Watching Ed today, hunched over the table, sorting through coins with steady but weary hands, was a quiet reminder of just how much energy even simple things can take. What others might see as just counting change, I see as a reflection of his inner strength—the effort it takes for him to keep going, to keep his mind and hands moving, even when stress presses down heavily. His concentration was intense, his face lined with both determination and exhaustion. It was as though he was fighting two battles at once: the task in front of him and the invisible burden of the stress he carries within.
Later, as he leaned back and closed his eyes, his face softened into a look that spoke louder than words ever could. It was the face of someone who had given all he could for the day, who needed rest, yet still held onto dignity and quiet perseverance. It made me realize that stress doesn’t just come from big problems—it also hides in the small things, in the routines and responsibilities that slowly wear us down.
But in these moments, there is meaning too. His persistence reminds me that even stressful days have value. They remind us that we are alive, that we are still fighting, still trying, still pushing forward despite the weight. It teaches patience, empathy, and a deeper understanding of what it means to walk alongside someone in their struggle.
Today may have been stressful, but it was also filled with courage, resilience, and love—the kind that shines even in tired eyes and heavy sighs.
