Reaching Back, Reaching Forward
A RITUAL
This takes five minutes. It asks everything of those five minutes.
Light a candle.
Speak her name aloud.
Say what she survived.
Say what she refused.
Say what she passed to you.
Sit with the flame until you feel the thread between you.

Closing note
There are no wrong words here. There is only the speaking, and the flame, and the thread that has always been there.
