The Light That Refuses To Break
The morning light is unforgiving. It catches the exact frame you keep replaying — the split second your voice changed, the way their eyes widened in fear.
You wear the mask of okayness while that image burns behind your retinas. But listen — the light does not flinch at what it sees.
It stood in that room too. And it knows the truth you are forgetting: what you did does not define who you are.
The light that lives inside you was there before the shout, and it is there now, untouched by the echo. You are not your worst moment.
You are the vessel holding the light that refuses to be broken by it.

John 8:10-11, Gospel of Thomas 70
