The Light Carries What You Cannot
The afternoon light is unforgiving. It shows every crack in the story you are building to protect them.
You answer the first question, then the second, and now you are inventing details just to keep the lie from collapsing. The weight of it makes your shoulders ache.
You feel like a fraud in your own home. But listen — the Light that shines in the darkness has not been overcome by your performance.
It is not waiting for you to be perfect. It is right here in the middle of your exhaustion.
There is a truth living inside you that is stronger than any story you could tell. You do not have to hold this up alone.
The light carries what you cannot.
