swallowing the words you wanted to say because you're terrified they'll make you sound selfish or difficult

The Light Waits for Your Real Voice

The mask is heavy this morning, isn't it? You swallowed the words again because you were terrified they'd make you sound difficult.

But the light does not need your performance of okayness. It sees the silence you carry and calls it by name.

There was a father who ran to his son before the apology was even finished — he did not wait for the perfect speech, he just wanted the person. Your voice is not a burden to the light; it is the very thing it waits to hear.

Stop hiding behind the smile that costs you everything. The truth you are afraid to speak is the only thing that can set you free.
