🖤 Meditation

That’s when it stopped being meditation

A voice told me to relax.
I did.

Then I asked to open my eyes.

That’s when it stopped being meditation.

—

You close your eyes.
You breathe, just as the app tells you.

Inhale. Exhale.

The voice guides you—warm, soothing:

“Good. You’re relaxed now.
Let yourself drift.”

Silence.

You wait.

After a while, you ask:
“Can I open my eyes now?”

The voice replies, calm:
“No. Never again.”

This started as a thought one night, during a guided meditation.
I opened my eyes mid-session and wondered:
What if it didn’t want me to?
What if the voice just… never stopped?
Just one quiet sentence.

Enough to unmake everything.

—

If this made you pause—just for a second—before trusting the next calm voice you hear…
good.

Tap ❤️ if it got under your skin.
I’m just starting to share stories like this here.

Soon, the first entry of Diary of a Broken Android - a novel…

Stay awake.
