Ever Vigilant

What makes a lighthouse truly beautiful isn’t the smooth, pristine exterior - it’s that it endures. It watches. It's there night after night regardless of whether anyone sees it or thanks it. That kind of devotion isn’t flashy, but it’s deeply moving.

 

In our lives, we often measure worth by appearance - how polished we seem, how well we keep up the illusion of composure. But like a lighthouse, our real beauty lies in our vigilance. In how we keep going, keep showing love, keep protecting what matters - even when we feel weathered or unseen. The cracks in the surface don’t lessen the value. They bear witness to the storms we've already survived.

 

So, whether your tower feels a little worn or your light flickers now and then—it doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It means you're alive. You’re watching. You’re keeping the path lit for someone else, maybe even for yourself. And that is luminous.
