The Light That Never Sleeps

The mind that scans every corner, checking for a threat that isn't there, is tired in a way sleep cannot fix. You have been the watchman while the house was still, believing that if you stop checking, something terrible will break in.

But listen to the truth that has held you through every other night: the light inside you is the watchman that never sleeps. It has never blinked; it has never been surprised; it has never slept through a danger that could actually touch you.

You were sent as a drop of that same light to illuminate the dark, not to guard against it. And the truth is this—the light in you is greater than the fear that haunts the corners of your room.
