I would always want you to feel: however it is you do.
As much as we want others to feel certain emotions at certain times—it just can’t be forced.
Loved your article—loved your approach and what it demonstrates to me time and again: you’re deeply thoughtful. That is an emotion.
You didn’t feel sadness or longing—but you did know it was a loss.
I think I’d rather thoughtfulness than sadness in a friend if I experienced a loss.
The pictures are just adorable!
I’m so impressed how you’ve kept these after all these years—see?? Thoughtfulness! 🧡🧡🧡
