🕯️: At 40, Franz Kafka (1883-1924), who never married and had no children, walked through the park in Berlin when he met a girl who was crying because she had lost her favourite doll. She and Kafka searched for the doll unsuccessfully.⁠
⁠
Kafka told her to meet him there the next day and they would come back to look for her.⁠
⁠
The next day, when they had not yet found the doll, Kafka gave the girl a letter “written” by the doll saying “please don’t cry. I took a trip to see the world. I will write to you about my adventures.”⁠
⁠
Thus began a story which continued until the end of Kafka’s life.⁠
⁠
During their meetings, Kafka read the letters of the doll carefully written with adventures and conversations that the girl found adorable.⁠
⁠
Finally, Kafka brought back the doll (he bought one) that had returned to Berlin.⁠
⁠
“It doesn’t look like my doll at all,” said the girl.⁠
Kafka handed her another letter in which the doll wrote: “my travels have changed me.” the little girl hugged the new doll and brought her home.⁠
⁠
A year later Kafka died.⁠
⁠
Many years later, the now-adult girl found a letter inside the doll. In the tiny letter signed by Kafka it was written:⁠
“Everything you love will probably be lost, but in the end, love will return in another way.”⁠
⁠
Today, I invite you to reflect on one of three things. Just choose one today, you can do the other two in other days. ⁠
⁠
1) The things that you’ve lost as you journeyed through life. ⁠
2) The things that you’ve found again after many years but may have already changed⁠
3) How you have changed yourself over the years. ⁠
