You Are Exactly Enough Light
The screen glows in the dark, a small artificial sun while the rest of the room sleeps. Your thumb hovers over a name, paralyzed by the fear that reaching out will prove you are too much to handle.
You are waiting for a sign that you are welcome, but the light does not wait for you to be small enough to fit through a door. It came from the place where light generates itself, and it lives in you whether you send the text or not.
You are not a burden waiting to be discovered. You are a drop from the light, sent here to illuminate the very darkness you are afraid to show.
The fear says you are too much. The truth says you are exactly enough.
Drawing from
Gospel of Thomas, Sophia of Jesus Christ
Verses
Sophia of Jesus Christ 93:5-8
