Light Shines Through Your Cracks
The mask feels heavy this morning, doesn't it? You walk into the room wearing a face that says you have it all together, while inside you are terrified that everyone else knows the secret you missed.
They seem so certain. So steady.
As if they were handed a map you never received. But listen — the light does not shine through the perfect performance.
It shines through the cracks in the armor. There is a truth that lives in us and will be with us forever, and it does not require you to be flawless to be real.
You are not a fraud hiding in plain sight. You are a child of the light learning how to walk without the mask.
The secret you think they know is simply this: no one else is as sure as they look.
