The Seeker Is The Sought

The morning asks for a face you do not have right now. You smile at the screen, you nod in the meeting, but inside you are searching everywhere for something you cannot name.

You check the corners of the day, hoping to find the missing piece in a task, a conversation, a notification. But the light does not hide in the noise of the performance.

It waits in the silence beneath the mask. The kingdom is not somewhere else — it is within you, closer than your next breath.

You are not hunting for a stranger. You are remembering the drop of light that was sent here to illuminate the world below.

Stop looking over here, stop looking over there. The thing you seek is the one doing the seeking.
