hearing your name called across a crowded room and feeling absolutely certain it belongs to someone else

The Light Does Not Make Mistakes

The room is loud, and when a voice calls your name, you flinch—certain it belongs to someone else, someone better, someone who hasn't failed as often as you have. You keep your head down, waiting for the mistake to be corrected, for the caller to realize they have the wrong person.

But the light does not make mistakes. It saw you while you were still a long way off, and it ran to meet you before you could rehearse your apologies.

That voice calling out in the noise is not an accident; it is an invitation to remember who you truly are. You are the one being sought.

The name they speak is yours.
