Care

Care.

We sometimes avoid hard conversations because we “care too much” to hurt someone.

But that’s not care. That’s comfort.

The most caring thing you can do is tell the truth. Even when it’s hard. Especially when it’s hard.

I’ve never had someone come back to me and say “I wish you hadn’t been honest.” Not once.

They come back and say “thank you for saying what no one else would.”

People deserve honesty. They deserve the chance to grow. They deserve to know where they really stand.

Withholding truth isn’t kindness. It’s protection — for you, not them.
