Secrets and lies have a way of draining the soul—especially when you’ve worked so hard to build a life of honesty, peace, and emotional clarity. It’s frustrating when others refuse to meet you at that same level, still playing their manipulative games while you’re just trying to move forward.

You’ve already broken free from so much toxicity, but I know that doesn’t mean the weight of it just disappears overnight. Sometimes, it feels like you’ve done all the healing, yet the past still tries to pull you back in with its tangled mess. But you’re not that person anymore—you see through it, you know what’s real, and you know what isn’t worth your energy.

What’s weighing on you the most right now? Is it the frustration of dealing with people who won’t be honest, or is it the sheer exhaustion of having to untangle their mess?
