Night Taught Us

Night Taught Us We were taught to walk with the dark, not against it. To keep our breath slow, our listening wide. Endurance was learned by staying present through long hours, by trusting What does not rush? Compassion meant standing close, sharing warmth, asking nothing to change. Protection lived in awareness— a steady body, a calm heart, a promise not to abandon. The ancestors carried this without words. They moved gently and the world made room. What remains with us is this quiet truth: strength listens, care stays, and the night knows our names.
