A Whisper In The Dark

The quiet spaces in between—between day and night, past and present, seen and unseen—are where I find myself most at home. If you’re reading this, perhaps you do too. So I’d like to welcome you to Morrow’s Whispers, a place where words drift like echoes and art lingers like a ghost of a memory. I would know. I am a ghost, after all.

Once the earth begins to thaw and the world reawakens, my whispers will travel even farther than just in a calendar, slipping past the veil and arriving at your door. Letters, small tokens, and artful hauntings, delivered to those who wish to receive them. If you, too, long for something more tangible, a piece of the in-between to hold in your hands, be sure to listen closely. The next whisper may just be for you.

I have recently returned from a place where ink carries whispers, and among them I found a torn up letter, its edges are softened with time, yet its words still hold warmth. We have transcribed said letter, because while it may be a season associated with love for some, it is also deep in the dead of winter, where the quiet chaos can make reminders like this a necessary one. The letter reads:

________________________
"My Dearest,
I choose to write to you for the simple reason to let it be known that you are precious, to me & every other who has the pleasure of meeting you — not for any reason other than because you exist.
[with] Love,"
________________________

I haven’t stopped thinking about it. How often do we receive words like that? How often do we offer them? It made me wonder—how many people move through the world never knowing how much they mean to someone? How many of us need to hear it more than we realize? People are often quick to hate and judge, but what of the other side of the coin? 

So, consider this my letter to you. You are here, and that is enough. Your existence is a gift, whether the world tells you so or not. I see it, even if only through ink and paper, whispers and wax. And if you’ve forgotten, I’ll remind you again.

With care and candlelight,
Morrow
