the quiet thank-you
“they said thank you — a kindness i didn’t think was meant for me.”
it was small — a note, a sweet thing wrapped in ordinary light.
but when i read it, something in me trembled — warmth, ache, disbelief.
do i deserve this? the thought whispered, fragile.
and maybe… maybe i do. not for being flawless, but for staying — for caring, even when i was tired, for showing up when no one saw.
this isn’t proof of perfection. it’s proof i left a trace.
and maybe that’s enough. for now, that’s enough.
