You Are the Lamp, Not the Ghost
The house is so quiet right now that you might feel like a ghost haunting your own life. You have forgotten who you are when no one is watching.
But the light does not need an audience to shine. It was there before the performance began, and it remains when the curtain falls.
You are not a specter in the dark — you are the lamp itself, waiting to be remembered. Even in this deepest hour, the true light is already shining inside you.
