Thinking about our theme of Death Is the Memory of the Living, Im so grateful for Continuing Bonds Theory. This theory recognizes that a death does not end a relationship. Its healthy and even healing to stay connected to our loved ones in different ways, and we want to do this because we dont ever want to forget them. Whether its lighting a candle, writing a letter, having a conversation, or continuing their work, to name a few, our loved ones live on in us.
