Faith is about doing. You are how you act, not just how you believe.
One day spent with someone you love can change everything.
When someone is in your heart, they're never truly gone. They can come back to you, even at unlikely times.
Lost love is still love. It takes a different form, that's all. You can't see their smile or bring them food or tousle their hair or move them around a dance floor. But when those senses weaken another heightens. Memory. Memory becomes your partner. You nurture it. You hold it. You dance with it.

She put one hand on mine. “When someone is in your heart, they’re never truly gone. They can come back to you, even at unlikely times.
