Hey, back to Rooted&Real.
And today I'm going to talk about
you not owing anyone your pain.
Does that make sense?
It's actually for people who've been forced
to perform their healing out.
Healing isn't a public event.
You don't have to explain what broke you.
You don't have to give people a play by play
of your recovery.
'Zii' (No)! You don't owe the internet your trauma
just to be believed.
Some things are sacred.
Some things are just for you and God.
Privacy is a protection.
Not everyone deserves access to your wounds.
You know, some people ask for details,
not to understand you.
But to discuss you.
You're allowed to say, "I'm working through some things."
and leave it there.
Silence is not hiding.
It's healing in peace.
You can be growing and be quiet about it.
You can be hurting and not post about it.
Your story, your terms.
When you're ready, you'll share what you want
and how you want.
Until then, protect your peace.
You don't have to bleed publicly to be valid.
Again, you don't owe anyone your pain.
You owe yourself your peace.
Keep it.
