Love Runs Faster Than Your Fear

The sun is rising, and with it comes the fear that your true self is a monster waiting to devour anyone who gets too close. You believe your darkness is a mouth that will eat the light.

But listen — the light does not run from what it finds inside you. It walks in.

There is a father who saw his son coming home from a long way off, covered in the filth of his own making, and he ran. Before the apology, before the speech — he ran.

He did not run because the son was safe to be around. He ran because love is faster than fear.

You are not the monster you fear you are. You are the place where the light has chosen to live.

The dawn proves it. The light rises inside you, and it does not consume; it heals.
