A Boy and His Kite

He kept adding more spools of string to make it go higher. A woman walked by and said, “You have that kite flying high.” And the boy agreed. The woman left and went about her business. On her way back, she looked up toward the kite and said, “I do not see your kite.” The boy agreed. She asked, “Then why don’t you let go of it?” The boy answered, “I can’t. I can still feel it tugging.”
This is the plight of bereaved parents.
