the silence after you speak, waiting to see if your voice was a mistake

Your Voice Was Light Finding Its Way Out

The house is quiet now, and the words you just spoke feel like they vanished into the dark. You wait to see if your voice was a mistake, if the silence is a verdict against you.

But the silence is not empty; it is holding space for what you have released. The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world, and it does not recoil from your honest sound.

It shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. Your voice was not an error.

It was the light finding its way out.
