The Light That Caught Your Fall
The house is quiet now, but your hand is still hovering over the choice. You remember how wrong you were allowed to be last time, and the memory freezes you in place.
The darkness feels heavy, like it has already decided the outcome before you even move. But listen — the light has never left your hand, not even when you dropped everything.
It was there in the breaking, and it is here in the hesitation. You are not defined by the fall, but by the light that caught you then and holds you now.
The choice is not between right and wrong anymore; it is between fear and the truth that you are already held. Move, not because you are perfect, but because the light in you is stronger than the mistake you fear making.
