i hope none of my friends are suffering in silence. i hope they feel safe enough to share their struggles, to let someone in, even when it feels hard. everyone carries battles we can't see, and sometimes just knowing someone cares can make a difference. i hope they find little moments that make them feel better, a kind word, a smile, a hug, or a quiet time to rest. i hope they know they are not alone, that reaching out doesn't make them weak, and that even in dark times, things can get better.
