you’re not too sensitive, and you’re not too tough. you’re not overreacting or being too cold. your feelings are valid, even if you are unsure of them. even if you don’t know why you feel that way. even if you feel guilty about it. even if it feels new and unfamiliar.
have you ever acted independent and strong, but deep inside, you still have this inner child of yours who wants to experience dancing under the rain, enjoying slides, playing with the swing, rolling over on the grass, wanting to hear compliments.
