  1. 0:00We stopped crying and thought about fun memories when someone came into the room

    But I had a personal experience where my younger brother came around the corner and he instantly just said a joke. We all just busted out laughing. It reminded me of the love that we share and the joy that he has brought into my life.

But I had a personal experience where my younger brother came around the corner and he instantly just said a joke that was the exact same tone, the exact same way that my older brother would have entered a room and made that joke. We all just busted out laughing. So we immediately stopped crying and then thought about those fun memories when that individual or my loved one came into the room. Right. We started to build on that laughter and that memory and began to share, you know, those fun stories.

So it almost felt surreal to laugh. But in that moment, it reminded me of the love that we share and the joy that he has brought into my life.
