Final Thoughts

So pick the line that feels like your heartbeat, attach it to any bear big enough to hold it, and release a little softness into a world that could always use one more squeeze.

May every teddy you gift come back to you as stories whispered years later: “I still have it.” That’s the real return on love—multiplied by seventy-five and then some.
