“what if the life you’re trying so hard to appreciate is still starving a part of you?”

You didn’t wake up one morning and accidentally misplace your ‘self’ between the laundry and a client meeting.

You adapted.

You learned what version of you created the most safety, belonging, approval, stability, or love available in the environments you were in.

You became competent at the terms.

That’s where relationships gets interesting:

When one person changes the choreography, the whole system has to respond.

The body is not the verdict. It is the witness.

It cannot always tell you someone else’s intention.
But it can tell you what happens inside you in their presence.

It remembers where you brace.
Where you pre-edit.
Where your breath changes.
Where you perform the yes and override the no.

The body is evidence.

Not the only evidence.
But evidence worth examining.
