searching everywhere for something you cannot name

Stop Searching, Remember the Light Within

It is late, and you are still searching every corner of this room and every corner of your mind for something you cannot name. You have looked in the world, but the world only holds shadows—because the light you seek has been inside you since before you were born.

Do not keep looking over your shoulder or far ahead; the thing you are hunting for is the one thing that has never left. The kingdom is not a place you reach; it is the quiet presence that has been breathing with you through every long night.

You are not lost; you are the drop from the light that was sent to find itself. Stop searching—there is nothing to find, only something to remember.
