The room got lighter
One observation
A friend died last week. At the match dedicated to him, his teammates weren't grieving. They were relieved. The man who lived without filters was gone, and the room got lighter.
One cost
When someone bothers you more than they should, and you can't point to a concrete reason, the intensity isn't about them. They're standing where you decided you couldn't.
One question
Who in your life makes you uncomfortable not because of what they do to you, but because of what they expose in you?
The mirror left the room. And everyone relaxed.
