Disclaimer: This letter is not laced with politeness. It’s not written to defend religion, culture, or emotional cowards hiding behind holy verses. This is not a padded message soaked in sugar to make dysfunction taste like divinity. This letter might hurt. But not because it’s cruel—because it’s clear. What you’re about to read is written with love that doesn’t flatter, and truth that doesn’t flinch. Read this with your soul wide open, not your pride tucked in.
