It's hard when you're doing the inner work and the people around you aren't.
You're healing, growing, setting boundaries, and sometimes it feels like you're the only
one trying.
You start to wonder if you're too much, too intense, or maybe growth isn't worth
the loneliness.
But it is.
Keep going in your journey.
Not everyone will rise with you.
Not everyone wants to.
And that's not your responsibility.
Your job is not to shrink so others feel comfortable.
Your job is to keep becoming who God created you to be.
Yes, growth can be isolating, but it also clears space.
It makes room for people who are doing the work.
People who don't just tolerate your growth, they reflect it.
They see you.
Don't let someone else's stagnation become your ceiling.
Don't slow down to match someone who's not moving.
You can love people and still outgrow their influence.
It's not arrogance.
It's alignment.
You're not too much.
You're becoming more of yourself.
Keep healing.
Keep rising.
And when it feels lonely, remember that you're not alone.
You're just in the stretch between what was and what's next.
Hold steady.
What you're building is real, and the right people will meet you there.
