A soul once asked Spirit, \u201cHow will I know if I\u2019ve passed?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Spirit smiled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe test isn\u2019t what you think. There are no written answers. Only love.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The soul nodded and came to Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here, the soul forgot the test.
It worried about being enough.
It struggled. It blamed. It yearned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One day, the soul heard a story\u2014of a water beetle who climbed a reed and turned into a dragonfly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Something stirred.
The soul remembered:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOh yes\u2026 I came to love.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So it forgave the friend who betrayed it.
It smiled at strangers.
It held a grieving mother\u2019s hand.
It prayed not for answers, but for peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the soul\u2019s time on Earth ended, it didn\u2019t cry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It rose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And Spirit said,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou passed.
You loved.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love is the only grade that counts.
Not how much you know,
but how much you gave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And when you rise,
you\u2019ll realise\u2014
You were never meant to stay,
Only to learn,
and fly away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
