“Just because you didn’t experience a close, loving relationship doesn’t mean you can’t cultivate one. Just because you didn’t hear people own their mistakes doesn’t mean you can’t accept your humanness. Just because you were loved conditionally doesn’t mean you have to keep proving your worth. Just because you felt misunderstood in life doesn’t mean your complexity is too much. Just because you were denied your feelings doesn’t mean it’s too late to honor your needs. Just because you made mistakes doesn’t mean you are forever defined by them. Just because you took an unauthentic path doesn’t mean you must stay the course.”
