Share a proverb you think is completely wrong and make your case.

“What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.”

Honestly?

I think this one is partly wrong.

Because sometimes what doesn’t kill you…

Breaks you first.

Exhausts you.

Changes you.

Leaves scars people cannot see.

Sometimes survival looks nothing like strength.

Sometimes it looks like barely making it through the day.

Crying. Resting. Starting over. Trying again.

And that does not make you weak.

Yes, hard things can teach us resilience.

Yes, we may become stronger over time.

But let’s stop pretending pain automatically turns people into superheroes overnight.

Healing takes time.

And sometimes strength is simply surviving what should have broken you.

Not stronger immediately.

Just still here.

And honestly?

That is enough.


With love

    Oh how I despise that phrase! It is all kinds of wrong! I agree, sometimes, what doesn’t kill you breaks you into a million pieces. X
