the terrifying silence of wondering if your quiet exhaustion pushed your children away

Light Enters Without Your Energy

The sun is up, but the house feels heavy with the silence you created last night. You wonder if your quiet exhaustion was a wall your children couldn't climb, if your tiredness pushed them away into a distance you can't bridge.

But look at the light coming through the window. It does not wait for you to be energetic before it enters.

It does not require you to be loud to be seen. The rising sun shines on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, guiding feet that feel too heavy to move.

Your fatigue did not extinguish the love in the room. The light was there even when you were too drained to speak it.

You are not defined by the silence of your exhaustion. You are defined by the light that returns every morning, regardless of how dark the night felt.
