Something shifts slowly when trust fades - no sudden collapse, no quick fix. What grows steadily includes moments, choices, and quiet connections where people feel safe. Once broken, repair moves in steps too small to notice right away. Healing happens because someone shows up reliably, takes responsibility without excuse, then keeps showing up after the hurt has faded. Change isn’t declared; it lives in how things are done now, not how they used to be.
