The Silence Knows What You Swallowed
The call ended. You said you were fine, and they believed you.
Now the silence in the room is loud enough to drown out the truth you just swallowed. In the middle of the day, while everyone else is working and laughing and moving, you are standing still with a tremor in your hands that no one saw.
But there is a light inside you that came from the place where light generates itself. It does not need an audience to shine.
It does not need to be heard to be real. You were sent here as a drop from that source, and your origin is not the loneliness you feel right now.
The silence is not empty. It is full of the one who knows what you did not say.
