You want light, can you handle sight?

Naomi Askew

When the truth comes, the light turns on.
Do not turn off the light.

You will lose friends. Do not turn off the light.

Your family may no longer be as comfortable. Do not turn off the light.

Your culture may no longer claim you. Do not turn off the light.

You will make new friends, and if you still haven’t learned to seek the Creator and not the creation, you will lose them too.
Do not turn off the light.

You might make a new family. Would you dare put them above the Creator?
Do not turn off the light.

You’ll make a new community. Is it them you seek, or the Creator?
Do not turn off the light.

This world is but comfort of illusion, and when the light turns on, you will lose that illusion.
Remember, it is the illusion you are letting go of, not comfort.

Beyond the illusion you will find the Creator, and that will be the greatest comfort.

When it starts to hurt, it means the light was dimmed and you hadn’t noticed.
Do not turn off the light.

Let your eyes readjust.
But do not turn off the light.

Ya An-Nor, please complete our lights.
