Remembering as an Act of Love
The garden rests beneath fallen leaves, and the air carries a hush that feels sacred. All Souls’ Day invites us to pause, not in fear or sorrow, but in reverence. It is a day for remembering the departed, for honoring the ordinary saints whose lives shaped ours in quiet, enduring ways. I think of hands that once planted seeds beside mine, voices that said grace over meals, laughter that filled kitchens now quiet. These souls, neighbors, friends, family, live on in the way we tend our gardens, share our recipes, offer kindness. Their legacy is stitched into our lives, not in grand gestures, but in simple, sacred rhythms. All Souls’ Day reminds us that remembrance is an act of love. We carry our beloved dead not just in our hearts, but in our habits—in the way we stir soup, prune roses, greet strangers with warmth. Their stories become our own. So today, I walk slowly. I listen deeply. In the hush of November, I feel them near, not gone, but woven into the fabric of this life. Saints, not by title, but by tenderness. May we honor them with memory and with mercy. May the garden bloom and reflect the beauty they left behind.
