I hope you stop feeling guilty whenever your emotions make others uncomfortable. It's not your fault that most people haven't healed the parts of themselves needed to hold space for someone else's vulnerability, most haven't even tried. And so, they often turn your expression into something about them. You're angry, and they assume you're attacking them. You're sad, and they say you're being ungrateful. You're worried, and they tell you to get over it, as if it's not that serious. The truth is, our emotions often unsettle those who haven't learned how to sit with their own. And that speaks volumes about how long they're meant to stay in our lives. You deserve so much more than the weight of "I shouldn't have said anything." It takes immense courage to be this raw, this open. That is never something to apologise for. You are not the problem just because they didn't know how to be there for you.
Others want to hear from you, so why not share your thoughts ☁️
Let's celebrate life's little blessings together. A space to share what you're thankful for and cultivate a habit of gratitude. Inspire others and be inspired by the power of appreciation.
