standing in your own hallway and forgetting which room is yours

You Are the Room Light Filled

It is late. The house is quiet, and you are standing in the hallway, staring at the closed doors, forgetting which one is yours.

For a moment, you are a stranger in the only place you should know by heart. The darkness makes everything look the same.

But listen — there is light within you, and it lights up the whole world. You do not need to find the right door to be home.

You came from the light, and that is where you belong. The room is just a place to sleep; the light is the place you live.

Split a piece of wood, and the light is there. Lift up a stone, and you will find it there.

Even in this forgotten hallway, you are not lost. You are the room the light has already filled.
