You Are Held Before You Prove Worth
The afternoon sun is high, and the mask feels heavy on your face. You are performing okayness while inside, a voice whispers that you are a fraud waiting to be exposed.
That you do not truly belong here. But listen — the light does not require you to be perfect to stay.
It simply asks you to remain. As the vine holds the branch not because the branch is flawless, but because it is attached.
You were chosen before you ever proved your worth. The fear says you must earn your place.
The truth says you are already held. The door is open, and no one can shut it.
