The Light Waits in Your Silence
The middle of the day is when the mask feels heaviest, especially when eyes turn to you and your mind goes suddenly, terrifyingly blank. You stand there, suspended in the silence, convinced that your inability to speak means you have failed the light.
But the light does not need your performance to be present in the room. There is a truth that lives inside you and will be with you forever, deeper than any words you could force out.
The silence is not an absence — it is the space where the light waits for you to stop trying. You are not the speaker; you are the vessel.
The words you cannot find are already written in the quiet between your heartbeats.
