Sorry not sorry
I have a hard time apologizing because I apologize too much
This one is for Conor Pfister, for all the times I didn’t say sorry. I’m working on it.

We spend our lives trying to unlearn many of the things we absorbed as children. Saying sorry and truly meaning it is a scary thing to do sometimes.
We all have thousands of things we do that we SHOULD feel sorry for and that’s okay. You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be Mies!
So proud of you.
This is so relatable and beautiful ❤️ I do the same as a defense mechanism which takes time to adjust 🥲
