I’m scared to say no to people I love. It would take trusting that love can survive disappointment.
I’m scared to rest without guilt. It would take believing my worth is not tied to output to get me to do it.
I’m scared to fail in public. It would take knowing I could recover without being defined by it.
I’m scared to ask for help when I need it. It would take proof that needing support won’t cost me my dignity.
I’m most scared to trust someone with my full story. It would take consistency over time to feel safe doing that.
The government
I complain about being misunderstood because my tone did not land right. What do you complain about most? Comment to let us know!
I complain about words that feel small but work to perpetuate a negative culture.
I complain about chairs that punish you for sitting too long.
