Recently, as I’ve expressed some of my feelings about being back at work to folks one-on-one, I’ve been told that I’m wrong about how I feel and what I perceive isn’t the case. [Note: I realize this is a very vague statement, but please bear with me. The details aren’t immediately relevant to the point I want to make.]
Although I recognize that the people saying these things are trying to speak truth in love, it doesn’t help to be told that I’m wrong about how I feel. My feelings are valid and real to me.
It’s okay to believe that someone is worried unnecessarily or that their feelings about a situation are ridiculous. Before you say that out loud, consider whether the other person needs to hear that from you. You can be right and kind at the same time.
Seriously, Jerk Brain? 
That will preach Liz. That will preach.
