"Why do siblings remember the same childhood so differently?
Because even with the same parents, the same experiences, the same dinners — no two siblings grow up in the same home.
One may remember chaos; another remembers calm. One may have been the caretaker; another, the protected one."

One may remember chaos; another remembers calm. One may have been the caretaker; another, the protected one.

Find your way back to warmth and presence.

Touch is one of the most powerful regulators of safety and connection in a relationship.
Couples who make physical affection a daily habit—hugs, hand-holding, back rubs, quiet cuddles—tend to feel closer, fight fairer, and repair faster.
And not every post is for everyone. If this isn’t your language of connection, that’s okay. The point is to find your way back to warmth and presence.
