👑 Scroll of the Crown: What If It Goes Right?

There’s a fear that creeps in when you’ve been burned.

A quiet one.

It doesn’t shout; it whispers:

“Be careful. Don’t hope too much.”

It’s the voice that keeps you scanning the horizon for what might fall apart… instead of what might come together.

For a long time, I let that voice lead me.

I thought I was being wise.

Calculated.

Grounded.

But the truth?

I wasn’t grounded; I was guarded.

I wasn’t discerning; I was defensive.

And underneath it all… I was scared.

Scared to hope.

Scared to trust joy again.

Scared that if I opened my heart one more time, the fall would finish me.

But something shifted in the ashes.

When everything broke… when silence swallowed what used to be loud…

When the echo of my own doubt was the only thing I could hear

I met myself again.

The me that still believed.

Not in fairytales.

But in alignment.

In legacy.

In a life that could actually feel like light.

I realized I’d been spending all my strength trying to protect myself from the wrong things.

And in doing so, I was blocking the very blessings that wanted to arrive.

So I made a new vow.

From now on, I lead with vision.

Not fear.

From now on, I speak life into what could go right.

I see possibility even when the pain hasn’t fully left.

I dance while the dust is still settling.

I speak truth even if my voice shakes.

And I build… knowing the ruins taught me how to never waste another brick.

Because what if it does go right?

What if the healing holds this time?

What if the joy is real and the love stays?

What if I was made for this kind of restoration?

That’s the King’s gamble.

To bet on growth over grief.

To wager legacy against loss.

To step forward, not because there are no scars…

…but because the scars became sacred.

🔥 Final Reflection:

Your fear is not proof that it’s not meant for you.

It’s just a threshold.

What lies beyond is a kingdom that only reveals itself to men who choose hope over hesitation.

So let the fear speak, but don’t let it lead.

Walk forward with your crown on straight and your heart open wide.

Because what’s coming might not be a collapse.

It might be the life you prayed for,

finally ready to arrive.
