And often, that was true.

They gave what they had. They showed up in the ways they knew how. And still, it wasn’t enough on the receiving end.

That doesn’t make them a bad person.�And it doesn’t make you one either.

Sometimes your best isn’t what someone else needs. And sometimes, it still isn’t enough.

The work is being able to hold both: taking accountability for what you did or didn’t do�without dismissing someone else’s experience.

Not explaining it away.�Not minimizing it.�Not redefining it to make yourself feel better.

Tell the truth about your effort and make space for the impact.

We say “be yourself” but judge when it looks different.

Kids notice that.

And over time, they don’t just adjust their behavior, they adjust who they believe they’re allowed to be.

Part 2 is where this shows up later. 💫

You keep trying to make it work, but what you’re really holding onto isn’t them.

It’s who they used to be.

And that version felt safe.
That version felt right.
That version made you believe this could last.
That version was home.

But love gets confusing when you’re constantly comparing
who someone is today to who they used to be.

At some point, you have to be honest with yourself:

Are you loving who they are OR grieving who they were?

That’s how you get your peace back💫

Moving beyond surface level friendships.

03/25/2026

For years I used to think something was wrong with me because I didn’t thrive in surface level friendships.

But the truth is, I don’t do well where depth isn’t welcome.

I struggled with pretending surface is enough.

Some people love surface level friendships. I’ve learned I don’t thrive there and that doesn’t make me difficult.

It makes me honest about what I need.

You don’t need more time.
You need honesty about where your energy is going.

I’ve had to sit with the truth that I’m not always overwhelmed by time, sometimes I’m just drained by what I keep choosing.

I struggled with the idea of being nice to people I no longer wanted in my life. I would just stop speaking to them, even disconnect from social media. But now I’m in a space of realization that two things can exist at the same time: I can still be the person I am and control how much access people have to me.

Know this: you are deserving of protecting your peace, even with folks who don’t mean you any good or deserve your kindness.
