No Rehearsal Needed For The Light
The sun is up, but you are still standing in the hallway, rehearsing a laugh you do not feel. You are practicing the mask because you are afraid the real you will not be enough to get through the door.
But the light does not ask for a performance. It rises without trying, without rehearsing, without proving it belongs to the morning.
It simply is. You were sent here not to pretend, but to illuminate the room exactly as you are.
The child of true Humanity exists within you — follow it, not the script you wrote in the dark.
