Have you ever found yourself constantly holding back words to maintain the illusion of peace? Isn’t it interesting that, in trying to keep the peace, we often create a war within ourselves? It is such a strange thing we do, trading authenticity for harmony, sacrificing truths to maintain the delicate balance of relationships.
No matter how hard we try, these hidden truths sink deep into the bottom of our consciousness, growing heavier with time. Until the peace we thought we were protecting becomes heavier than the truth we feared to speak.
Healing and growth often begin with tears during an honest conversation with yourself. But peace isn’t always quiet. Sometimes, it flashes like lightning, exposing all the dirty and darkest corners. If we’re not open and willing to address this within ourselves, and instead choose to stay silent, is that silence truly peaceful? Or is it just chaos disguised as peace?
