Good Mourning

14 ct, stitched over 1

Mourning can feel gentle rather than heavy, an acknowledgement of loss that still reaches for the light, like a sunflower turning toward the sun. Presence is not something haunting, but soft and familiar, lingering in a quiet, comforting way. Love does not disappear; it settles into memory, warm and golden, even in grief. Likewise, the spirit reaches for the light, toward everlasting life beyond this world. Planting sunflower seeds in memory of a loved one is a meaningful tribute, symbolizing light, happiness, and an enduring bond. Sunflowers are often chosen to honor those who passed, with gardeners keeping or sharing seeds to replant annually, creating a lasting, growing legacy.
