Noah sat on his grandparents' front porch, feeling the weight of the emptiness beside him where his Grandma used to sit. As the sun set, casting warm colors over the yard, the sadness grew in Noah's chest. His Grandma's absence felt like a missing piece of his heart had gone with her. He sat quietly, listening to the sounds of the evening, trying to push away his sadness. Soon, his Grandad joined him, sitting beside Noah and gently patting his shoulder. Noah confessed that he missed his Grandma deeply, feeling as if she had taken a special part of him when she passed away. His Grandad, who also missed her, suggested they try something to ease their feelings. He proposed they take deep breaths together, which could help lighten their hearts, even if only for a moment. Reluctantly, Noah agreed, and as they breathed deeply together, Noah began to feel a little lighter, as if the weight in his chest had lessened. His Grandad explained that it’s important to feel sadness but also be kind to oneself and allow those feelings to pass. Noah expressed his fear that letting go of the sadness might mean forgetting his Grandma. Grandad reassured him that it was okay to feel sad, but it was also okay to feel joy when remembering the happy times with her. As Noah recalled fond memories of his Grandma, a warm feeling began to fill his heart, softening the emptiness. Grandad then shared that his Grandma’s love was still present, much like the stars in the sky—though we can't always see them, they continue to shine. Noah looked up at the stars, noticing one that seemed to shine brighter than the others. He imagined that star represented his Grandma’s enduring love. Grandad explained that when someone we love passes, they become like the stars: always present, even when we can’t see them. Noah realized that, although he couldn’t see his Grandma anymore, her love was still with him, in his heart and memories. As Noah breathed deeply, he felt a little more at peace,
