Dear Parents,
Many children go through the experience of loss in all its forms and severities, ranging from losing a game they love, to losing a loved one, or losing a home that used to shelter them. Although most of the losses in our lives do not end happily as in this story, the writer’s message is clear: the important thing is not to despair, and to cling to hope. Sometimes beautiful memories are all we have, so we should keep them, and turn them into a positive energy that charges us, because “nothing is really lost if we keep it in our hearts”
