We visited Anna’s grave once more that year—this time as a family. Not to mourn, but to honor.
On the drive home, Claire placed her hand over mine and said softly, “You didn’t lose your ability to love when she died. You were just waiting to share it again.”
I finally believed her.
Love doesn’t replace. It expands. And when we allow it to grow, it can turn loss into something that gives life instead of taking it.
If this story touched you, share it forward—someone out there might need its light today.
