Guarding the Lamp So It Does Not Go Out

The house is quiet now, and the only voice loud enough to reach you is the one calling your boundary a sin. It whispers that saying no is the same as turning your back on love.

That protecting your own small, trembling space is selfishness in disguise. But listen — the light that lives inside you did not come from a place of scarcity.

You came from the light, the place where the light came into being on its own accord. It is self-generating.

It does not need to be drained dry to prove it is real. When you say no, you are not closing a door against the world.

You are guarding the one thing you were sent here to carry. The boundary is not a wall.

It is the vessel that holds the lamp steady so it does not go out.
