For the Ones Raised on Survival (and Love)This is for the ones who grew up scanning rooms before they spoke. Who learned to read silence like scripture. Who knew how to comfort others before they ever learned to comfort themselves.
Some were raised on pain—quiet, subtle, shaping. Some were raised on love—warm, but conditional. Most were raised on both.
This road, stretching into the dusk, doesn’t promise healing. It doesn’t erase what came before. But it does offer something gentler: a place to breathe, to walk without flinching, to remember that softness is still possible.
