You Are Known Before You Speak
There is a terrifying quiet that comes with the first light, where you wonder if the world would even notice if you simply vanished. You feel like a ghost in your own life, invisible in your pain, as if your absence would leave the morning exactly the same.
But the light looks at you differently, with a gaze so deep that the very hairs on your head are numbered. That love did not wait for you to make yourself seen before it chose you. You are not a flicker that can be forgotten; you are a drop from the light, sent here to illuminate what you touch.
So as the sun rises on this new day, know this: the silence is not proof that you are unseen. It is only the space where the light is already holding you, waiting.
You are known before you speak, and you are missed before you leave.
