Hurting her while she was already hurting… that’s where you truly failed….not just as a man, but as a human being.
She was already carrying more than she ever admitted. Silently fighting battles you never even noticed. She was struggling to hold herself together… questioning her worth, drowning in overthinking, stretched thin by life, and still choosing to show up for you. And in return? You became another wound.
When she needed comfort, you gave her confusion.
When she needed closeness, you pulled away.
When she needed to feel safe, you made her feel disposable.
You didn’t see her pain….you added to it.
You didn’t protect her….you became another reason she had to protect herself.
That’s where you failed.
Because being a real man isn’t about saying the right things when it’s easy.
It’s about standing up when she’s breaking down.
It’s about showing up when she’s too tired to keep pretending everything’s fine.
And you didn’t.
You let her suffer in silence, and still expected her to pour into you.
One day, you’ll realize the kind of love she gave you wasn’t ordinary.
It was selfless.
It was rare.
But by then… she’ll be gone.
Not bitter, not broken… just healed.
And finally loving herself the way you never did.
Hurt people, hurt people. Only healing ends the cycle.
Quote: If you never heal from what hurt you, you’ll bleed on people who didn’t cut you.
Tamara Kulish
The pain we carry makes it difficult to trust and form healthy relationships.
Quote: I push people away because I’m afraid I might not heal again if I get hurt.
I push them away and paint my walls so good they can’t recognize me anymore.
I don’t give people a chance.
Bisma Ljaz
Left unaddressed, it can lead to sadness and manifest as anger towards ourselves and others.
Quote: Someone said, “anger is sadness that has had nowhere to go for a very long time,” and I’ll never forget that.
Unknown
And that anger, fuelled by hurt, can creep out in some unsavoury ways.
Quote: A person begging for their humanity to be acknowledged can sound an awful lot like rage.
Kalen Dion
Pain clouds the lens we use to interpret the world around us.
Quote: Heal so you can hear what’s being said without the filter of your wound.
But it doesn’t need to harden our hearts. We can choose another way.
Quote: I admire people who could have turned cold after everything they’ve been through but still choose love anyway. There’s strength in that.
Keneilwe Dr. Mhlanga
We can heal. While painful temporarily, it’s the only way to stop the hurt.
Quote: Healing doesn’t have to look magical or pretty. Real healing is hard, exhausting, and draining. Let yourself go through it. Don’t try to paint it as anything other than what it is. Be there for yourself without judgment.
Healing means being vulnerable. But there’s strength in that.
Quote: Vulnerability is about being brave enough to show up again and again. Even when it’s hard. Even when there’s been hurt.
Lauren Fortenberry
Because it’s the battles that we face that shape us and make us strong.
Quote: She never seemed shattered; to me, she was a breath-taking mosaic of the battles she’s won.
Matt Baker
If you focus on the hurt, you will continue to suffer.
If you focus on the lesson, you will continue to grow.
We can find meaning.
Quote: Healing never came when I clawed in search of it. Instead, it came when I was willing to listen to the lesson the pain was here to teach me.
And while there are no easy paths for solving the hardest in life.
Quote: There are no easy answers. No quick solutions. No clear paths for resolving the hardest in life. But we can choose forgiveness. We can choose grace. No matter what, we can still choose love.
You let time pass.
That’s the cure. You survive the days. You float like a rabid ghost through the weeks.
You cry and wallow and lament and scratch your way back up through the months and sometimes it may be years. And then one day, you find yourself alone on a bench in the sun, and you close your eyes, lean your head back and realize you’re okay.
I am Ok. I am safe. I am loved.
Repeat after me….
I am alluring I am magnetizing I am pursued I am in high demand Everything & Everyone rearranges themselves to benefit me I wait for nothing I always manifest instantaneously I always get exactly what I want
I’m changing for me. I choose to love myself fully & let go all that doesn’t serve me. I am magnetic. I am radiating magnetism. I am love. I am the PRIZE.
Grounded in rich narratives and relatable characters, you’ll explore a tapestry of connections that celebrate love in its most authentic forms.
It’s all about vibration—energy! This is how we draw things into our lives. Overcome the fear of scarcity. It’s essential to open our hearts. What you resist persists. Let go of self-doubt and embrace gratitude. Struggling often comes with resistance and effort. Address your patterns. Trauma can spike blood glucose levels, creating a need for control.
The immune system reacts to this as a threat, leading to inflammation—it’s a protective response.
Tackle toxic patterns that put stress on the body. Focus on mind management; remember, I am not my depression—it is not an illness. I know how to navigate it.
Extreme trauma comes with a label, but let’s work to fix it. I am experiencing it, not defined by it. Addiction is a response, not a disease. Your mind holds more power than your brain.
Acute trauma can trigger a storm in both hemispheres of the brain.
While you can’t change the past, you can begin from where you are and shape a new ending.
