The most told lie in the English language. Used when
someone is, in fact, not fine, but
drowning in their sadness. They say ‘I’m fine’ because they don’t want to worry anyone with their
problems, and it’s easier than explaining what’s wrong.
person 1 : how are you, you look upset?
person 2 : oh, I’m fine thanks, just tired
person 2 is not fine.
I’m tired - tired of living, tired of fighting, tired of waking up
everyday to fight a constant
battle going on inside their
head.
