The Light Does Not Keep Score
The ceiling is still there, but your mind is replaying a conversation that ended hours ago. You are editing every pause, every stumble, convinced you said too much or too little.
The silence of the house amplifies the noise of your own regret. But listen — the light is not keeping score of your stumbles.
It saw the awkward moment, and it did not turn away. In the quiet, you are not being judged; you are being held.
The voice that speaks peace into this room is louder than the voice of your shame. You are safe here, exactly as you are, with nothing left to prove.
Drawing from
Matthew 26:38-39, Gospel of Mary 5:4-5
