Back to My Words

“Life pulled me inward for a while.

Tonight, I’m slowly finding my way back to my words.”

I’ve been a little quiet here —

not because I forgot this place,

but because life asked me to lean inward for a while.

I’ve been helping my husband through his season,

and at the same time learning to put my health first —

to rest when my body asks,

to slow down when my heart feels heavy.

Some days there was nothing left for words.

Only breath.

Only quiet.

Only doing my best.

But my words were never gone —

they were just resting with me.

And tonight,

I’m gently finding my way back.
