REFLECTION.
One day, your parents will take on a new role - their most important one yet.
Not in age, but in need.
They'll move a little slower, tell the same stories, and forget things you've just shared.
In these moments, don't see a change in them, but a chance for you to pay it forward.
The people who were always there for you will one day rely on your care.
The hands that nourished you will need help holding things steady.
The voices that soothed your fears will need reassurance.
Make time for them, listen without distraction, and cherish every moment.
One day you'll treasure every conversation, every meal, every moment.
Speak with kindness, love with intention.
Because when the phone stops ringing, you'll want to have no regrets.
