It's time for you to see people for who they really are and not their potential, because potential and no action is just empty. Don't waste your time and affection on people who they think can walk all over you, do something behind your back and still act like you matter to them.
I notice everything. Granting grace is my mercy, not my surrender, do not confuse patience with passivity, and never order me around. I am not a ticking time bomb; I am the wreckage that came after. This peace was paid for in violence. This kindness was carved out of rage. If my calm makes your skin crawl, pay attention to that fear. You should be scared.
