In a world that often confuses volume with value, I’ve come to find refuge in quiet places.
There is a kind of strength that doesn’t seek recognition—a softness anchored in faith.
While noise rises from every corner, from power-hungry voices to self-importance disguised as leadership,
I try to hold onto a stillness that doesn’t waver.
This piece is a reflection on that choice—to walk through the storm, not untouched, but lit from within.
A Lantern in the Ego Storm
I’ve learned to quiet the noise,
not by fighting it,
but by turning toward the hush within.
There’s a calm that doesn’t beg to be seen—
a faith that steadies me
while the world spins louder
with egos dressed as leaders,
voices craving praise,
power clinging to fragile thrones.
I walk beside none of that.
I carry my silence like a lantern,
and it is enough
to see the path ahead.
These words are not a declaration — they’re simply a light I’ve placed by the path, in case you are walking here too.
