Similar in theme to the previous ‘Multiverse’ prose, this posting touches us deep within to reveal a similar truth:
“…What is sacred does not chase you.
It waits until you are ready to see.”

The Keeper of Quiet Truths
My grandfather said
the night reveals nothing
to a heart that comes demanding.
Wisdom is an old trail—
it waits beneath the silence
until our footsteps become humble.
For many seasons,
I feared the darkness within me,
believing every shadow
had come to steal my way.
But the elders taught
that some shadows are medicine.
They hide the seed from winter
and give the spirit room to listen.
So I stopped asking the sky
to make my road easy.
I asked instead for clear eyes,
a steady heart,
and the courage to recognize truth.
Now, when the world grows quiet,
I hear my ancestors reminding me:
What is sacred does not chase you.
It waits until you are ready to see.
