"You're okay, Rau."

Rau, it's ok to make mistakes. It's ok if sometimes we hurt the people around us if its an honest mistake or from a rebuke... anything that can better a person. I think, as long as we know the necessary reconciliation, then it's gonna be fine. Trust your relationships. It's not shallow. Sometimes, we just have to dicern if we have to reach out or leave things to be. Talking to people directly involved in the issue can give you wisdom how to act accordingly. Or you can talk to some people you trust, and just ask them to just hear you out. Don't keep your thoughts alone. Else, you'll really die early. And you don't want that. Loneliness reduces human life by 14%, remember? You wanna live longer to serve, right? You still wanna live to love? So please, Rau, take care of yourself. Take care of your mind. As good as God is, His people are too. They can be trusted. They are safe. They are for you. They are not against you. They can handle themselves even if you can't handle yours anymore... That's why they are there, sent for you. They come from God. It's not only Jesus you can rely on. You have your family. You have your friends. They are all sent by God for you, to help you. Let them laugh with you. Let them cry with you, for you. 

Mistakes? Failures? Fear? Pain? One day, everything will just be redeemed. And no more tears to shed. And even as you wait for this day, know that in Christ Jesus forgiveness and healing is available as possible and necessary. No matter how many times. No matter how deep. No matter what it is. He will never run out. His loving kindness is unending. And His throne of grace is available to you, child. Anytime.

You are a child, Rau, before anything else. 
His beloved child.
