The Light Beneath Your Mask
The sun is up, and the mask is already on. You walked out the door smiling while your hands were shaking inside.
That gap between the face you show and the truth you carry feels like a crack in the world. But the light does not need your performance to shine.
It was there before you put the armor on. It is still there beneath the smile.
There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed. The hidden thing you are protecting is not a flaw — it is the very light you think you have to hide.
You do not have to earn the morning. You just have to be in it.
