My grandmother never had a mobile, but she knew how to listen to me better than anyone.
She didn’t have WhatsApp, or a front-facing camera, or a clue how to make a video call.
But when I spoke, she’d look me in the eyes… and I’d feel like my whole world mattered.
She didn’t have filters, but her face lit up brighter than any screen.
She didn’t use emojis, but a squeeze of my hand told me, “Everything will be alright.”
She never wore headphones because her ears were always open for me.
She never sent a text saying, “I love you.” Instead, she’d say it every morning with a hot cup of tea and shared silence.
Now, I miss her more than any notification.
Because modern life gave us a thousand ways to stay connected,
but sometimes we forget how to truly listen.
This isn’t a trending post. It’s just the truth.
