The Things They Left Behind

Some things are just things. But when they belonged to them? They become everything.

This week, we’re talking about the objects, the memories, and the little things that still connect us to our dads. Beth’s dad left behind a love for technology (and plenty of gadgets), while Alice’s dad was more of a pen and paper kind of guy. Their music tastes still live on in our playlists, and somehow, the most random objects—things they touched, used, or loved—now hold the biggest meaning.

It’s sentimental, a little funny, and a reminder that even when they’re gone, the things they left behind can still make them feel close.
