Holding What Never Got Set Down
You are holding what never got set down.

Load persists
not from stubbornness,
but from circumstance.
Naming ongoing holding
removes pressure
to explain
why you are tired.
The explanation
is already here.
You have been carrying
consistently.
Recognition
opens the possibility
of rest
when conditions allow.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my past stress still feel so "present"?
You are Holding What Never Got Set Down. In this framework, an "open loop" from five years ago takes just as much energy to hold as one from five minutes ago. Continuous holding creates Structural Density. Your experience is shaped by the "weight" of everything you haven't "landed" yet. Recognizing this helps you see that your current "fatigue" is a historical accumulation, not a current weakness.
Can I set down things from years ago?
Yes, through "Retroactive Landing." You acknowledge the old responsibility and give it a "Done" signal now. In the Meaning Density Model™, the brain doesn't care about "linear time"—it cares about "loop status." By consciously deciding that an old burden is "no longer mine to carry," you release the internal "grip," immediately increasing your available capacity for the present.
