Serve warm, with compassion. Even hard truths taste better when shared with empathy.

Store gently in your heart. Don’t let regret spoil your courage. Revisit the memory only to remind yourself how far you’ve come.

Share the recipe freely. Someone else may be starving for the same courage you found.

Variations

The Written Version: Write your truth in a letter, even if you never send it. Sometimes, the act of writing is enough.

The Silent Version: Speak your truth through actions — choosing differently, setting boundaries, or walking away.

The Shared Version: Tell your story aloud to someone who understands. Truth grows stronger when it’s heard.
