hear. listen. silence.
it's easy to hear people out, they say. maybe. maybe, it is. it's a nice sound; their voices like water falling from one glass to another. two glasses. two minds. theirs. yours.
❝...the secret stays locked within not for want of a teller but for want of an understanding ear.❞
a nice feeling; knowing you're the understanding ear for someone you care about, the understanding ear stephen king talks about in 'the body'. a nice realization, perhaps. you're trusted.
but today, i want you to forget.
today, i want you to let go of all the voices in your head that aren't your own. you're kind. and good. and appreciated. you are. for being you. for lending an ear and for exchanging your smile for a few words that you store inside yourself. again, You're Kind. Good. Appreciated. but be all of those things to yourself as well.
you deserve to be treated with tenderness. warmth. so yes, today, i want you to forget every voice but yours. fill the space you make with new smiles.
listen, but let go
