What Was Shown

I was given access to something unfamiliar.

No instructions followed.

Others around me were curious, analyzing, naming,

trying to understand what it meant.

I didn’t feel drawn to do the same.

I knew that understanding would come later —

or not at all.

Some things are not meant to be handled immediately.

They are meant to be acknowledged and left untouched.

I didn’t need answers to know it mattered.
