If everyone had a therapist that could listen to them.
If every therapist had another therapist to listen to them.

There would be one person left to listen to everyone else.

Who will listen to that person?

No one.

Because everyone has to speak up and be heard.

So one person is forced to be silent and listen.

All that that one person learns is to listen and move on in silence. Something that most people forget to teach themselves.

It's not bottling up their feelings. It's being able to place their weakness in their heart and being able to forgive themselves and the one who created that bad memory. That's what most people forget to learn, forget to do.

Sometimes being listened to isn't everything.

Forgiving is.
