A young boy reflects on the enduring presence of a loved one who has "walked on," finding comfort in memories, stories, and the love that lives on in his heart.
When a young boy's grandmother walks on, he wonders where she's gone.
Did she go to the market to buy ripe melons? Or maybe she's in the garden, watering her herbs?
It feels like she's somewhere far away, so the boy finds new ways to share stories about his day, hoping she can hear him.
Even her house feels like it's waiting for her return. Then as the boy approaches the kitchen, the scent and memories of her cooking assure him that no matter where she is, her love will always be close by.
Because when someone walks on, they stay with us. They grow in our hearts and guide us as we walk in their footsteps.
