Clinging to Ghosts

Published February 24, 2026 | Letter to Samy

You know, Samy, we often grow the most through the things we never speak about.

If our souls feel distant, it isn't because the world changed—it’s because I did. But the isydia you remember hasn't disappeared; I am still here, woven into the person I’ve become. I think that when we talk, you can still hear me in my voice and see me in my gestures.

"Sometimes it feels like we are both clinging to ghosts, and some nights that weight feels heavier than others. In those moments, the memories don't just resurface—they breathe."

I want you to know that you are the most welcome person on this planet in our house. Maybe it’s time to let the memories stop being just "memories." Maybe it’s time to let them become part of our present again.

Growth • Memory • Presence
