🔥 The Story of the Flicker

There was once a woman who thought her fire had gone out.

She had given so much, carried so much, that all she felt left with was smoke.

But inside her, there was still a flicker.

Tiny. Almost invisible.

But alive.

She didn’t notice it when she was busy asking “What’s my purpose?” or “What’s next?”

But the flicker was there, waiting for her to pause.

One morning, she placed her hand over her heart.

She whispered: “I’m still here.”

And in that moment, the flicker grew.

Her fire didn’t roar back all at once—it wasn’t about rushing. It was about trust.

Trusting that even on the darkest days, there is something in her that refuses to be extinguished.

That flicker?

It was her purpose.

Her drive.

Her unshakable truth.

And as long as it stayed alive, she could always rebuild the flame.
