The night thoughts lie louder

Night makes everything closer. The mistake. The fear. The old shame. The path looks like it ends in mist. In the morning it often goes on.
If you’re awake and the mind is cruel, treat it like weather at 3 a.m. — real, loud, and a bad advisor. Drink water. Put a light on. Don’t decide your life in the dark.
The horses in the field aren’t solving the mist. They’re standing in it. You can stand until the hour turns.
If the night is telling you to end something you cannot take back, wake someone. Call Help. You don’t have to be polite about needing a voice.
