soft enough to admit it i've spent a lot of time living through my emotions, and the rest i've lived dismissing them. i'd say things i didn't mean because i was hurt, and that didn't mean my behavior should be excused. i just feel we are allowed some grace because we are all learning, growing, and understanding. as we go through change, pain, and healing we learn that sometimes we aren't the best versions of ourselves, and sometimes we hurt others because we're hurt. but to know the difference between saying what you feel, saying what you think, and speaking from pain with the intent to inflict it.
