The Light Sees Your Exhaustion Behind Competence
The afternoon is a long, quiet stretch where the noise of fixing finally fades, and you realize no one has asked how you are holding up. You have become so good at carrying the weight that people forget you are carrying it at all.
The silence feels like proof that you are invisible, or worse, that you are fine. But there is a light inside you that sees the exhaustion behind the competence.
It does not need you to solve another problem to notice your pain. It knows the cost of your strength.
You are not forgotten just because the room is quiet. The light is sitting right there in the middle of your routine, waiting for you to stop long enough to feel it.
