Your Silence Is A Door Opening
The sun has set, and the armor you wore all day finally hits the floor. You are exhausted from the rehearsals.
All day long, you practiced the perfect words in the quiet of your mind, building brave conversations that never left the safety of your thoughts. But when the moment arrived, your throat closed.
You stayed silent while the chance slipped away. It feels like failure.
It feels like cowardice. But the light is not disappointed in your silence.
It knows the weight of the fear that stole your voice. There was a man who stood before the light with a mouth full of excuses, too afraid to speak the truth of his need.
And the light did not wait for a speech. It simply touched his tongue and said: be opened.
You do not need to have rehearsed the perfect line to be heard. You do not need to be eloquent to be known.
The light was already listening to the words you couldn't say. Your silence was not a wall.
It was a door the light is already opening.
