The Light Remains When The Phone Is Silent
The phone buzzed in your pocket, a ghost of a habit, before you remembered the silence has become the norm. That hollow ache when the day begins without the voice you used to hear—it feels like a piece of you is missing.
But the light that woke up with you this morning does not depend on a call to exist. It was there before the first ring, and it remains now in the quiet.
You are not defined by who stops calling. You are the light that shines regardless of the connection.
The sun rises even when no one tells you it has.

Matthew, Gospel of Thomas

Matthew 5:14
