The Light Sits in the Broken Quiet
The mirror shows a stranger whose hands will not stop shaking. You are forcing a bright, steady voice to call out 'good morning' from the other side of the bathroom door.
But the light does not ask you to be steady. It does not need your performance.
It stands at the door and knocks — not to demand entry, but to sit with you in the broken quiet. You are not failing because you are trembling.
You are human. And the love that holds you is greater than the shaking.
The mask can wait. The light sees the tears, and it calls them holy.
