HEALTH

I Remember.

Before fear, before diagnosis,
before the body began to whisper its frailty,
I was whole.

I am still whole

Whatever changes pass through flesh and bone,
whatever names are written on medical charts,
my being rests in a deeper perfection—
a sacred completeness untouched by circumstance.

True wellness does not arrive from outside.
It rises quietly from within,
like light through a window at dawn,
like a spring that cannot be sealed.

No verdict of science,
no measured number,
no shadow on a screen
can reduce the truth of who I am.

I am not my condition.
I am not my report.

I am the light of God—
radiant, undiminished.

I am whole.
I am peace.
I am.
