Others' understanding of you often won't exceed their depth of self-awareness.


Someone who cannot face their own emotions will find it hard to understand your feelings;
someone who never reflects on themselves will also struggle to see your perspective.
Many disappointments in relationships are not because you didn't communicate clearly,
but because the other person's cognitive capacity cannot hold your expression.
Mature individuals won't waste energy on repeated explanations,
but will learn to recognize boundaries:
those who can understand don't need much explanation,
those who can't understand, no matter how much you say, it won't help.
Communication has skills, but understanding has a threshold.
Rather than insisting on being understood by everyone,
it's better to leave yourself to those who truly have the ability to accept you.
