The Mirror
Most people do not avoid self-awareness because they are incapable.
They avoid it because it removes their excuses.
This is not reflection.
This is not growth.
This is not a beginning.
This is a test of willingness.
The Question
What part of your life only functions because you keep carrying what should have been acknowledged, named, or shared years ago?
Rules
Do not explain.
Do not justify.
Do not soften it.
Do not blame anyone else.
Write it as fact.
Before You Continue
If your answer required:
defending yourself
explaining context
listing what others did wrong
You are not ready for what comes next.
That is not a judgment.
It is a boundary.
If you can see it without asking to be rescued from it, continue.
