The Water Was Made For You
The water has turned cold, and you are standing perfectly still, terrified that moving will prove you are selfish. You hold your breath in the steam, waiting to be worthy of warmth.
But the light does not ration itself like a scarce resource. It came from the place where light generates itself, unbidden and endless.
You were sent as a drop from that source to illuminate this very moment, not to shrink from it. The fear says you have used too much, but the truth says you cannot exhaust what has no end.
Adjust the handle. Step into the heat.
The water was made for you.
