Hunger That Points You Home
The house is quiet, but your hunger is loud. You stand before the open door, scrolling through options that feel like ash in your mouth because nothing fits the shape of the ache inside.
This is not a failure of appetite. It is a sign that you are hungry for something the world cannot stock.
The light does not offer you a stone when you ask for bread. It knows the difference between what you want and what you need.
You are not broken because you cannot be satisfied by the ordinary tonight. You are being guided toward a deeper nourishment that only the silence can provide.
The hunger is not a void to be filled, but a compass pointing you home.
