Not everyone knows how to sit with themselves.
Some people fill the silence with noise, distraction, or disruption — not because you invited it, but because your calm reminds them of what they avoid.

Peace can feel threatening to someone who hasn’t learned how to rest inside themselves.
So they poke.
They provoke.
They project.

This isn’t a reflection of your openness or your strength.
It’s a signal to protect your quiet.

Stillness is not weakness.
It’s discernment.
It’s clarity.
It’s a boundary you don’t have to explain.

This is your reminder:
You are allowed to keep your peace intact.
You don’t need to absorb someone else’s unrest to be compassionate.

Slay on.
