This week, I’m lighting a candle for all the people and stories that shaped me, the parents I’ve said goodbye to, the friends I’ve held close at life’s edge, and even the dreams I had to gently release. I didn’t always understand that letting go could be an act of love, or that remembrance could feel like celebration. But over time, I’ve learned that the sacred work of midlife isn’t about holding everything together- it’s about learning when to open your hands.
Key Takeaways:
- Letting go isn’t the end of love- it’s one of its deepest expressions.
- Small rituals, like lighting a candle or sharing a story, can bridge the space between loss and gratitude.
- Remembering the people who shaped us helps us live more intentionally, with grace and wonder for what still remains.
