Some memories do not need much.

A laugh.
A voice.
A tiny detail no one else would think twice about.

And somehow it all comes rushing back.

Every story leaves something behind.

At Archway of Hope, we believe storytelling can honor a life, preserve a memory, and create connection in moments that often feel isolating.
Sharing a story does not erase grief. But sometimes it helps make room for hope beside it. It reminds people they are not alone in what they carry.

That is why we create space for stories of loss, resilience, love, and healing. Not polished stories. Human ones.

We Tell Stories That Matter is more than a phrase to us. It is the heart of why we do this work.

If you have a story you want to share, we would be honored to listen.

“Life is full of grief, to exactly the degree we allow ourselves to love other people.”
— Orson Scott Card

Grief is not proof that love failed. It is often proof of how deeply it existed in the first place.

To love someone fully is to let their absence change us when they are gone. That kind of grief can feel overwhelming, but it also speaks to the connection, care, and memories that continue to live on long after loss.

We believe those stories of love and loss deserve to be remembered, shared, and carried together.

In this third chapter of Cup Half Full, Lauren Abendschein shares her story with honesty, vulnerability, and quiet strength.

Through her experience, she opens up about the heartbreak of pregnancy loss, the weight of unanswered questions, and the reality of walking through grief while still showing up for the life around her. She speaks to the dreams that begin the moment you find out you are expecting and the silence that follows when those dreams are suddenly gone.

Lauren reflects on motherhood, resilience, and the tension between fear and hope. From loss to healing, her story is a reminder that even in the darkest seasons, love endures and the possibility of light remains.

This series exists to hold stories like this with care and compassion. Not to fix or rush grief, but to create space for it, to honor it, and to remind us that connection and hope are still present, even here.

If you have a story to share, we would be honored to hear it.

Your story matters.

Special thanks to JDs Waco for creating a space where stories like this can be shared with care.

A new Cup Half Full episode is almost here.

In this upcoming conversation, Lauren Abendschein joins us to share a story shaped by love, loss, and the moments that quietly change us. It is thoughtful, honest, and grounded in the strength that comes from being truly seen and heard.
We are grateful she chose to share her story with us.

The full episode will be available on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube tomorrow at 5:00 PM.

A heartfelt thank you to JDs Waco for creating a space where stories like this can be shared with care.

Your story matters.
