The Boundary Revolution You spent years saying yes to avoid disappointing people. You called it kindness, but it was exhaustion dressed as love. Now you're learning that peace costs less than approval. That you can care deeply and still say no. You're realizing that not every connection deserves access. That love doesn't mean self-abandonment. Setting boundaries isn't pushing people away; it's choosing to stay close to yourself first. It's remembering that you deserve the same care you give so freely.
