Courage to Name What Hurts

The world reflects what is happening inside us. As external instability grows, our inner turmoil surfaces. We are being called to develop the capacity to see clearly, hold steady, and engage with truth. Grief is present, signaling what needs healing. It cannot be ignored or suppressed without consequence. Healing begins by acknowledging what we feel, even when it is uncomfortable. For too long, emotions have been dismissed, buried under social conditioning. Facing them directly is an act of reclamation. What if we are at a tipping point on humanity’s timeline, where we must name what hurts, grieve the losses, and learn how to make larger-scale repairs? We must account for past harms, personal and collective, and commit to making repair. Transformation is possible when we meet truth with courage. The future depends on how we engage now. Our choices will shape the world we leave behind.

May we have the courage to name what hurts,
grieve our losses, and commit to the repair
that shapes a just and healed future.
