Sometimes your family hurts you and that is not okay‼️

While we may love our family and friends, sometimes they are capable of inflicting pain on us under the garb of 'fun' or 'good intentions'. This pain that comes with their words or actions is as real and painful as a physical wound. In such times, I hope you know that you didn't do anything wrong. You have the right to feel the hurt and the pain. Your sadness about this makes sense. Your anger about this makes sense. Your hopelessness about this makes sense. No one, not even your family can hurt you. And if you are feeling hurt right now, please know that you don't deserve any of it. You are precious. And you deserve to be treated with respect. You deserve to be loved and to be cherished. You deserve to be cared for in as delicate a manner as you deem fit. So hold on gentle soul, you will get through this. ❤️‍🩹
