Smallest things 🌼

"Sometimes the smallest things can mean the most," said the moon, "so never underestimate the power of kindness."

Emotional maturity is the ability to hold space for someone else’s feelings without being triggered, (getting offended, angry, sad). It means listening with presence instead of defensiveness, and remembering that 9/10 times, it’s not personal - it’s simply their inner world asking to be seen. It’s one of the most meaningful gifts you can offer another human.

Some phrases that can help:
“I’m here to listen — tell me what’s going on.”
“Your feelings do matter.”
“Thanks for trusting me with this.”
“I can see this is really important to you.”
“What are you feeling right now?”
“I hear you.”
“Your experience is valid, even if it’s different from mine.”
“What do you need in this moment?”

Drop a 💗 if any of these resonate…
