"What makes a good book, for me, is the depth and breadth of emotions the story evokes in me. This book made me feel everything. EVERYTHING. And I loved every word of it. Yes, there was sadness, and yes, I cried real tears. But I also laughed out loud, gasped in surprise, and sighed in delight so many times. " ~N,White GOODREADS
THE MEMORY KEEPERS
|
|
It is true that when a loved one dies, the suffocating fear for most is that we will, in the days, months, and years ahead, forget them. The joy in their laugh will be lost, and the sweetness of their perfume will fade. It chokes sleep out of our nights and traps us in the doorways of empty bedrooms. We smother ourselves in musty t-shirts in an attempt to breathe in their memories. Fear hijacks moments of happiness, then drowns us in guilt in moments of celebration.
It is endless, it seems.
Also true, though, is that when we allow it to, memories can be triggered often. Symbols surround us and can connect us to the things that brought us joy. A shooting star transports us to a night cuddled on a dock. Toasted pecans awaken memories of baking cookies with a child, now gone.
A song. A smell. A sign.
What if these triggers were carefully planned and purposefully placed to redirect you from grief? To connect you to your loved one?
These are the workings of The Memory Keepers, for, in memories, we find the joy we feared lost.

Imagine a boy, that you've loved forever.
He finally he says he loves you too and then he dies.

Have you ever had a memory of someone, sparked by a song, a smell or words written on a page? A rainbow appears just when you are feeling sombre and reminds you of a childhood friend? The message on a billboard floods you with flashbacks from high school? You notice a vase of lilies, just like the ones your mother loved, in the window of a florist? In that moment, it feels as though someone must have put those reminders there, secretly, just for you. THAT is the premise of The Memory Keepers |
