The Light Needs No Reply

The afternoon stretches out, a long middle where the mind keeps rehearsing a conversation that will never happen. You say the words, you hear the silence, you say them again, knowing the voice on the other end will never answer.

It feels like shouting into a void that has swallowed every attempt before. But listen — the light that shines within you does not depend on a reply to exist.

You came from the light, the place where it generates itself, and that origin remains untouched by any human silence. You do not need the other person to validate your worth or your truth.

The light is already there, self-sustaining, waiting for you to stop looking outward and remember where you truly come from. The rehearsal ends not when they answer, but when you realize you were never alone.
