Scorpio

When someone offers you praise that feels like it missed the mark, the mistake is not in their seeing but in their timing. The words themselves might be true, even generous, but they arrive at the moment when you most need to be seen for something else entirely. You can feel the gap between what they noticed and what you were actually trying to do, and that gap tells you more about your own intentions than the compliment does. Sometimes the kindest response is to accept what was offered without correcting what was missed.
