Love Remembering Its Direction

It happens in the quietest second. A bird hits the window, or the coffee boils over, and your body turns before your mind catches up.

You are already forming the syllables of their name, ready to share the small thing, the ordinary thing. And then you hit the wall.

The solid, silent wall where they used to be. The air rushes out of you because the space is empty again.

In this deepest hour, the reflex feels like a betrayal, a fresh wound opening just when you thought you were healing. But listen.

The light does not scold you for turning around. It does not call it a failure of faith to forget, even for a second, that they are gone.

Jesus told a man once, 'Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you.' He knew the instinct. He knew the human need to turn and speak the truth to the one who matters most.

Your turning is not a mistake. It is love remembering its direction.

The name rises because the love is still alive, and love does not know how to be silent. The wall is real.

The absence is heavy. But the light is not blocked by the silence.

It lives in the turning itself.
