Ghosts

We walk through a graveyard and only see death. However, the reality is that it is life—the lives these people have lived. This is apparent when families show up to pay their respects and remind the ghosts that they are loved. This doesn’t only happen at a cemetery, either. It happens in our favorite rooms in the house, at the diner where we and the deceased hung out. All places have ghosts and memories. Appreciate the memories you have, not what you lost.
