Day 14: What It Costs

Today's prompt

Not talking has a price. Write what it has cost you this year. A relationship. Sleep. A decision you made alone that you should not have. Something you missed because nobody knew to tell you. Be specific. Vague costs feel free.

Read the prompt above twice. Once fast, once slow. Notice what your first reaction wants to be. That reaction is data.

Silence feels like the safe option because its bill arrives late. It still arrives.

You can sit with this for 5 minutes today and put it down. You can come back tomorrow. There's no completion gate, no streak, no score. The work is the reward — and the work is just paying attention to what came up when you read it.
