“The more you grow your life, the smaller it becomes.” For anyone who’s endured trauma, that might be the most honest advice there is, and I’m not being ironic.

Hhnnggh...🥴💕

You're welcome, Love! 🥰💫

That’s fair. But over-apologizing, even when rooted in trauma, still shapes how people experience you. It’s okay to say that without judgment. Compassion includes honesty about how that energy affects others.

It sounds like you’ve flipped the idea a bit. I wasn’t criticizing apologizing in general, just the tendency to over-apologize for things that don’t matter. A lack of apology can be frustrating, but too much can also wear thin. Both can undermine respect in different ways.

Your highland cow(?) is incredibly adorable. My heart aches. 😭🤍
