Beautiful words as always T. Where am I still afraid to speak up? I think I’m exhausted battling with my dad for so many years. Now I have some healthy distance from him and don’t talk as much which I’m happy about. But, I always wonder how I’d feel if I felt he crossed a boundary I wasn’t comfortable with. On the one hand I empathise with him for what he has been through. On the other, I’m still angry and sad for being on the receiving end of his anger. Does time heal all wounds? I’m not sure. How long does it take the heart to heal from something deep? Should you feel guilty for speaking up and causing chaos? Usually I don’t give a F. However I might be afraid to speak up because I’m tired of having to always fight...
Being tired from having to always fight is so understandable, I think even just our day-to-day battles can slowly wear us down and exhaust us, never mind the bigger challenges like this. Thank you so much for sharing so openly, I can imagine this is a really tricky line of knowing when and how to speak up and let it all out, and when to keep the peace... Sending you so much support Vipul ✨ and well done for doing so much work to be aware of your boundaries and of yourself, it's something many would rather shy away from!
