Heal: Esther Rowe (Facebook)
This puts healing into perspective. Healing is for us, not the offender(s).
Heal. Your mom may never apologize to you, because she has conditioned herself to believe that she did right by you. She hasn’t healed.
Heal. Your father may never apologize to you, because he can only see what he’s done right. He hasn’t healed.
Heal. Your family members may never apologize to you, because toxicity is what they were raised on. They haven’t healed.
Heal. That “friend” may never apologize to you, because he/she isn’t sorry. He/she hasn’t healed.
If/when they reach their healing, they may seek your forgiveness. Be so healed that it won’t even matter.
Heal. For you. You owe it to yourself.

Esther Rowe: Why Men Don’t Share Pain
Men don't like sharing their pain with women for the same reason parents don't like sharing their pain with children.
They don't think you can handle it, and they think they'll look lesser in your eyes.
And the thing is, they're usually right about both of those things.
Why would a man share these things with a woman? What is she going to do about it? Save him? Respect him more? No. She'll worry about him, but she'll also begin to lose confidence in him.
That's the thing about being a leader. You don't keep the job if you're not cut out for it.
And when a man opens up like a mother sharing her most intimate anxieties with her child, there's a sense of regret and shame with having burdened a weaker soul with horrors not meant for them. There's a type of disgust with one's self for failing to contain the suffering.
And of course the very best of women, like a child, would most earnestly want to help. They would. They hate the idea you suffer alone, and would love to help you feel better. It's not that they don't care. They do. It's just that this pain isn't meant for them.
Even when men are hurting, they're putting you first, protecting you, shielding you from burden.
Remember that next time you say a man isn't in touch with his emotions.
He is. And that's why he does his best not to subject you to his most personal horrors.
If something is up with him, don't ask him what it is. Let him protect you and maintain his dignity. Do sweet little things for him. Be his ignorant comfort. He will appreciate it and be vitalized with the morale he needs to defeat his demons.
Nagging achieves the opposite.

Throwback Thursday: Truth Is…
#TheTruthIs that women expect men to love them unconditionally, junk included. Let a man request the same, and it's a problem.
