You can't force truth telling conversations in spaces where hearts are closed, where the eyes don't see you or your pain, where the ears only hear blame. You can not have these important healing conversations when your truth is unheard. And often it's not you. It is because the truth telling space exposes the lies, the actions that hurt you and the reality of being accountable that keeps these truth telling conversations from happening. And yes, they are hard conversations but necessary for healing to occur. For some, journeying with a lie even in their heart of heart they know it to be a lie, it is more comfortable to journey in that space because they avoid their part in hurting you too. Because they believed and acted on one side of the story and not sitting with you. Because they took your love, your kindness, your nuture, your handwork for granted and failed to see that you were so broken. You can not have truth telling when hearts are closed.
