Trust us, Dear One, they won’t stop loving you if you say “No” when you need to.

We know it can be tough to do when you so very much want to help, when you so very much want what’s best for them.

When someone that you love is telling you that they are in need, that they are hurting, scared, or confused, their attention is going to be mostly focused on themselves; on their discomfort and pain, on figuring out how they can relieve it as quickly as is possible, which is completely understandable.

But here’s what they are not telling you; they still want what’s best for you too.
