The Light Inside Does Not Wait
The sun is up, and so are you, even though the silence from yesterday feels heavy. You sent your words out into the void, and the void sent nothing back.
It is easy to believe that your effort has vanished, that you are shouting into a room with no one home. But there is a light inside you that does not depend on a reply to exist.
Thomas said if you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. The saving is in the bringing forth, not in the world's applause.
You are not waiting for permission to be valuable. The light was placed inside you before the first application was ever sent.
It is already there, working while you wait. Go gently into this morning.
