The Door That Opened to Your Best Memory

Behind an old oak tree, a door appeared once a year. Whoever opened it stepped briefly into their happiest memory—not to escape the present, but to remind themselves that joy was possible, real, and reachable again. A lonely teen entered and found herself laughing in the summer sun years ago. She returned to the present smiling, realizing happiness wasn’t a chapter that had closed. It was a chapter she could write again.
