The Light Lives Inside You Now
The afternoon hums with a noise that tries to drown out the memory you are holding so tightly. You reach for the exact pitch of their voice, the specific warmth that used to settle your nerves, and your mind comes up with static.
It feels like losing them all over again. But listen — the light does not live in your memory.
It lives in you. You came from the light, and that origin cannot be forgotten even when the details fade.
The silence you fear is not empty; it is the space where the voice that matters most speaks your name now. You do not need to reconstruct the past to be held in the present.

Gospel of Thomas 50, John 8:10-11
