the silent terror that your vulnerability will finally exhaust their capacity to care, turning their love into pity or resentment

You Are Known Fully And Fiercely

The afternoon wears on, and the quiet calculation begins in your chest. You measure your need against their patience, convinced that one more honest word will tip the scale from love into pity.

You hold back the truth to protect them from the weight of you. But the light does not keep a ledger of how much you have taken.

It is not a resource that depletes when you draw near. There is a love that does not grow weary of your story, no matter how many times you tell it.

You are not a burden to be managed. You are known — fully, fiercely — and the knowing has not turned away.

The fear says you are too much. The truth says you are exactly enough.

John 21:15-17, Matthew 12:20
