The Right Words: when you need them most by Donna Ashworth

Thank you, for not passive-aggressively berating me, each time I fail to return a text or answer a call…and for always allowing me to just dive people who like themselves as they are don’t judge they don’t look for flaws neither do they filter your words for signs of weakness they have learned to stop all that they accept themselves naturally and so they accept you too just as you are” There are many things to fear in this life but I have found that there is one to be feared above all the things you failed to say.”
