The built-up fatigue, the exhaustion is over powering.

Taking a turn for the worse, our lives can be ever so dramatic. The uphills and downhills, taking its toil on us. Life is hard. It is even harder when you are so exhausted.

Keeping mum.

We at the height are ready to decline.
There is a tide in the affairs of men
Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
Is bound in shallows and in miseries.
On such a full sea are we now afloat,
And we must take the current when it serves,
Or lose our ventures.
- Julius Caesar, William Shakespeare
