Keep the words that felt like they were written in your own handwriting; tuck them in wallets, mirrors, or the notes app on your phone. Pull them out on ordinary Tuesdays when grief sneaks up like static electricity. The sky doesn’t keep score—it simply holds every syllable you send, whispering back, “We’ve still got them, and we’ve still got you.”

Tomorrow the wind will keep moving, and so will you. Carry the quiet certainty that every time you remember, you extend the conversation—an endless thread of balloons, invisible but unbreakable, tying you to the love that never left. When you’re ready, release again, speak again, look up again; the heavens have unlimited storage and infinite patience.
