This point really struck a chord with me.

So often we jump in with advice or solutions, thinking we're helping, when really, all someone needs is that simple act of empathy, just being there.

It's amazing how powerful it can be to hold space for someone without trying to "fix" things.

Your words are a beautiful reminder that healing starts with feeling understood, not with being told what to do.

Thanks for sharing this heartfelt piece!
