missing my grandpa today. he would have loved our

5/6 Edited to

... Read moreLosing a grandparent is one of life's deepest emotional experiences, and certain moments or places often bring their memory to the surface in a profound way. For me, our garden has become a special space that keeps my grandpa's spirit alive. Each season's bloom reminds me of his love for nature and the simple joys he found in life. After his passing last year, tending to the garden became both a tribute and a healing process. I often find myself imagining how proud and happy he would be seeing it flourish this year. Gardens can be such a powerful metaphor for life—growth, change, and renewal—and nurturing it helps me feel connected to him. When I look at the flowers and plants, I think about the stories he shared and the lessons he taught me. It's comforting to believe he’s somewhere peaceful, maybe watching over us "in the sky," just as I hope. This hope brings a sense of peace amid grief. If you also have lost someone dear, finding a personal way to honor their memory—like creating a garden or any meaningful ritual—can be a beautiful way to cope and celebrate their legacy. It reminds us that although they may be gone physically, their love and influence remain with us forever.

A Minecraft Tale from My Grandpa
My grandpa once told me about a magical build he’d seen in Minecraft—a towering treehouse nestled high in the canopy of an ancient jungle. Its walls were crafted from shimmering glass, making it feel like you were living among the clouds. ‘Each floor had a purpose,’ he said, smiling. ‘The botto
