It's easy to be kind to people who were kind to you.
The real test comes when someone gives you the same pain they once gave you, and you finally have the chance to give it back.
You remember what they did. You remember how it felt. But you don't have to become the same kind of person just because they were.
Sometimes healing looks like refusing to pass the pain forward.
You can remember what they did without letting it decide who you become.
