FAQ
Q: Why an empty plate?
A: Because silence often speaks louder than words. It reminds us that healing begins not with what we have, but with what we’ve lost and choose to rebuild.
Q: Can forgiveness really change everything?
A: Yes — like salt in a dish, forgiveness doesn’t erase bitterness, but it balances it.
Q: What if the other person doesn’t accept my peace offering?
A: Keep the plate empty. It’s a promise to yourself that peace starts with you.
