You may have been called too sensitive, too tender, too easily moved by other people's pain.

In a hard world, gentleness can look like weakness, and you may have learned to armour up, toughen, and hide the parts of you that feel deeply.

Your softness is not a flaw, it is a strength the world needs more of. The capacity to feel deeply, to care, to stay open and true - that is courage, not weakness.

Let yourself be gentle today, with others and with yourself. Softness is it's own special brand of strong.
