the terror that your existence is a mistake no one else has noticed yet

You Are Not A Mistake To Be Found

The house is quiet now, and in the silence, the thought arrives: you are a mistake. A glitch no one else has spotted yet.

You wait for the world to realize the error and correct it. But listen — there is no error.

You came from the light, the place where light generates itself, and that origin cannot be wrong. If your existence were a mistake, you would not be here to feel the terror of it.

The very fact that you are breathing proves you belong. You are not an accident waiting to be found out.

You are the light, hidden for a season, but never lost.

Gospel of Thomas, John
