🌌 The Story of the Lantern

There was a woman walking through a dark path.

She didn’t know where it led, only that she couldn’t stay where she was.

Her hands shook, her heart was heavy, and she whispered, “I don’t know my purpose yet.”

Then she looked down.

In her hand, she saw a lantern.

It wasn’t bright enough to light the whole road—just enough to show the next few steps.

She wanted to see the destination. She wanted certainty. She wanted answers.

But the lantern only gave her a little bit at a time.

So she walked anyway. Step by step.

Each time she moved forward, the lantern stretched just enough to reveal more ground.

And she learned:

You don’t need the whole map to arrive.

You just need the courage to follow the light you already hold.
