When Remembering Becomes a Survival Skill

A business owner sits alone in a quiet office. The day has taken everything out of them. Slack pings are finally silent. The graphs on the screen lean red. Their shoulders are tight. Their jaw is set. They stare at the numbers and think, “It is all on me.”

Ten feet away on a side table sits a Bible and an old journal full of stories. Stories of doors that opened at the last minute. Contracts that came out of nowhere. Friendships that arrived right on time. Breakthroughs that made zero sense on paper.

Tonight, they do not even look at it.
