It’s not weakness that you’d rather pretend you’re happy instead of admitting you’re in pain — it’s a silent strength. It’s indicative of how much you genuinely care for people, protect your peace and how strong your spirit is, in the grand scheme of things. Some of the strongest people are those who smile through silent battles. Just know: It’s O.K. to feel, to cry, to not be O.K. Strength isn’t always about sucking it up and holding it in — it is also about knowing when to let it out and heal. You’re strong, not because you obscure the pain, but because you confront it every single day.
