Light Meets You in the Deepest Breaking
The day is ending, and the silence in the room is heavy because you cannot speak the breaking inside you. You fear that if you say the words, the light will turn away from your cracks.
But remember the father who ran while his son was still a long way off, still covered in the dust of the road. — The light does not wait for you to be clean before it embraces you.
It meets you exactly where the breaking is deepest. You do not need to fix the story before you can rest in it.
— The silence is not a wall; it is the space where you are being held. No one can snatch you from this love, even when you cannot speak.
— The light is already at your door, not to judge the silence, but to sit with you in it.
