The Dawn Runs to Meet You

The sun is rising now, and with it comes that quiet terror of being truly seen. You fear that if the light falls on your flaws, the people you love will turn away.

But look at how the morning arrives—it does not scan the earth for perfection before it shines. It touches the broken ground and the whole field alike.

There was a father who saw his son coming home, covered in the dust of his worst mistakes, and he did not wait for the speech or the cleanup. He ran.

The light does not flee from your shadows; it runs to meet you in them. You are not loved despite what is hidden, but because you are known.

The dawn has already broken, and it has not left you behind.
