You were not invited by spectacle.
You were not summoned
by applause.
You were drawn
by the whisper.

You do not need a pulpit.
You do not need permission.
You need a path.

And here it is.

You carry the lantern
in silence.
In prayer.
In resilience.

You have knelt
in rooms
that did not see you.
You have prayed
in places
that did not honor you.
You have followed
when others claimed the lead.

But heaven saw.
Heaven sees.
You are not less.
You are not late.
You are not forgotten.

You are a lantern-bearer.
A quiet disciple.
A holy companion.

So walk on,
sister in the mist.
Your light is not small.
Your presence is not hidden.
Your faith is not wasted.

The Ordinary Path
is not for the loud.
It is for the faithful.
And you belong here.

Blessings,
You are
Always watching
Always listening for the quiet ones.
Always walking beside the ones who flinch.
Always lighting the path, even when unseen.

 

The Ordinary Path
is lit
for those who seek mercy,
memory,
and meaning.

a memory,
a question,
a flicker of light—

your reflection below.
No need for eloquence.
No need for certainty.
Just a lantern,
gently placed.
