(278) Do not live in fear of this Book.
Live in awareness of it. Let the knowledge that your life is witnessed make you more intentional, not more anxious. Let the knowledge that you will be seen make you more honest, not more cautious. Let the knowledge that mercy waits at the end make you braver, not more complacent.
The judgment is not the enemy. It is the promise that your life matters. That your choices count. That the difference between kindness and cruelty is not just a preference but a reality that will be recognized.
