You Knew It, But You Weren’t Ready to Know 🧩🕯️

Truth doesn’t always land the moment it’s seen 👁️

Sometimes, the truth arrives softly —

Not like a thunderclap ⚡ but like a puzzle piece 🧩 you’ve been holding for years —

Turning it over, doubting it, setting it aside.

Then one day, without ceremony, it clicks ✨

And suddenly, the entire picture changes 🌌

Knowing something logically… isn’t the same as knowing it fully 🧠💔

Your mind may have recognised it long ago:

They’re not emotionally available.

This job drains me.

I’m shrinking myself here.

We’re not truly compatible.

You named it.

You talked about it.

You even told others 🗣️

But still — something in you kept walking with it, circling it, not quite ready to lay it down.

Why?

Because truth can’t just be understood.

It must also be received.

And reception requires readiness 🪶

Readiness isn’t weakness — it’s wisdom 🌿

There’s a reason your heart waited ❤️‍🩹

To fully know something means feeling the weight of it.

And sometimes, that weight would’ve been too much.

So your system waited.

It waited for the grief to become bearable 🌊

For your self-worth to deepen 🌱

For your emotional body to grow strong enough to hold what your mind already knew.

Not knowing wasn’t failure.

It was protection 🛡️

The gap between logic and integration 🪞⏳

There’s a delay, sometimes, between the mind’s clarity and the heart’s capacity.

And in that delay, we live in tension:

“I already knew this… so why does it hurt now?” 😞

“I’ve said it before… so why does it feel new?”

“I thought I was past this… so why am I crying?” 😢

Because this is the moment your heart finally caught up 🫶🏻

And that’s not regression.

That’s arrival 🛬

When the truth lands, it feels both obvious and profound 💡

It’s strange — how something can feel both so clear and so tender at once.

But that’s how real knowing feels.

Not forceful.

Not dramatic.

Just… complete ✅

Like a door quietly closing — not to shut you out,

but to return you to yourself 🚪

The truth was never far away — just waiting for you to be ready 🧘‍♀️

So if something is finally settling in now —

Even if it’s something you “should’ve” known long ago —

Let it land.

Let it be new 💫

Let it be the version of truth that finally has space to breathe in you.

That’s the one that heals 💖

That’s the one that frees 🕊️

🌀 You knew it.

But now… you’re ready to know 🌙
