In that moment, people who had formed connections with me came to mind one by one. When their faces flickered through my consciousness, I naturally began to imagine light spreading abundantly to them as well. At first, it felt somewhat awkward. The subtle sense of distance that remained in one corner of my heart, an inexplicable discomfort, still stirred faintly. However, the longer I gazed upon the light permeating them, the more that awkwardness gradually softened and disappeared. The light seemed to tear down invisible barriers, bridging the gaps between us and gently dissolving the hardness that remained in my heart.
