I don't explain my silence.

If I need to retreat into myself, I do so.

Without lengthy explanations, without excuses, and without guilt.

I no longer waste energy trying to make everyone feel comfortable with my mood.

If I'm silent, it doesn't mean I'm offended.

It means I need space.

I've learned to respect my silence as much as my words.

And for those who truly appreciate me, this explanation is enough.

What personal rule do you live by now?

Share it in the comments, I'm very interested 💭🖤
