Sunbeam

Some moments feel like a delicate flower, fragile and just waiting to be shared. We hold onto those special moments, hoping for the right time to speak up. But just as you’re about to, someone else steps in and says what you wanted to share, snatching that moment away from you.
It’s not done on purpose; they’re just quicker and caught up in their excitement. To them, it’s no big deal, but for you, it feels like an eclipse, leaving you in the shadows without any shine.
This kind of loss often goes unnoticed. No one sees how your truth retreats inside you, while to the world, nothing has changed. You may have missed your moment, but the truth remains yours, shaped by your experiences and alive within you as you breathe.
Perhaps the lesson is patience, or courage, or simply grace.

To know that the sun is generous. That even when one beam is lost, another will find its way to your face. And when it does, you will be ready,
not to clutch the moment, but to let it flow through you like light through stained glass, uniquely yours, impossible to copy.
