Your soul does not need numbing agents to try to not feel hurt and loss.

“I found it amazing how many numbing agents I use on a daily basis to hide from my inner truth and emotional pain: overdoing for others, putting on a painted smile, sarcasm, saying 'I’m fine.' Thank you for giving me the tools to help me identify what I have been doing and giving me the safe space to be vulnerable and grow.”
