Season 1, Episode 4 — The Blue Bird A gentle Christian fiction chapter in an unfolding story about learning to stay present to connect (and so much more). From Mira’s Journal: I visited Mom today. There was such clarity in her eyes, a softness that’s been missing for a while. She smiled when she saw me, and she was so happy when I brought her favorite bread from The Daily Bread Bakery. I carried Charity’s words with me: be present, right here, not live in the what ifs. We talked, and she started telling stories from when I was little. She laughed so hard about Bill the bluebird — the one I named when I was little. I wish I could remember that one. It felt like sunlight breaking through to see her laugh. When I asked about what I was like as a baby, she changed. It was a little strange. But her dementia is a little strange. Maybe it was that. Before I left, she mentioned something I can’t shake .. a secret room in our old house. Could that really be true? I’ll find out soon. ⋆ ✦ ⋆ This chapter lingers on what it means to stay connected with intention, even while grieving what used to be. For Mira, simple moments begin to open again, and with them, quiet threads from her past start to unravel, hinting that there’s more to her story than she’s ever known. In Promise Hill, we explore life struggles through the lens of an unfolding mystery and what it means to discover the quiet ways God meets us in ordinary moments we almost miss.

From Mira’s Journal… Today, my phone rang—and for a moment, it was her---My mother. Clear. Present. Calling my name through the fog of dementia like a candle flickering in the dark. I should have felt only relief. But instead, worry rushed in.... again. I find myself in a spiral of questions. The same ones I always fall into...How long will this last? What if she disappears into that fog again? What if I miss the window? On my way to see her, I found myself caught in an unexpected conversation—one that gently got my attention: Healing doesn’t always come through answers. Sometimes it comes through presence. ********************* This chapter is about the tension between fear and love… between grieving what’s slipping away and choosing to stay fully present anyway. Because even the smallest moments of clarity can hold a kind of hidden gift—if we’re willing to stop running ahead and be with what is.

From Mira’s Journal… I came back from Grandma Eden's today, still unsure of what I’m doing here… or how to begin again. She told me an ancient story—one about wells that felt strangely meant for me. Gentle, but unsettling in the way truth often is. As I listened, I realized something: healing isn’t just about time passing. Something in me has to choose something different. My patterns can’t stay the same if I want things to get better. And for the first time, I wondered if this hard season might be asking more of me than survival… it might be asking me to grow. ***************************** ✨ New here?

From Grandma Eden’s Journal… Today, I met Mira at the edge of what she believes is the end. She came to me carrying that particular kind of loss that doesn’t always have words—when life has unraveled all at once. Divorce. Moving. Her mom. And now, the job she depended on… gone. To her, it feels like a burial. Like everything she built has been taken and placed in the dark. But I’ve lived long enough to know something she cannot yet see: Sometimes what feels like being buried… is actually being planted. Hope rarely arrives loudly. More often, it comes like a whisper. A small light. A gentle hand reaching through the soil. This is the start of Mira’s journey… the beginning of her learning that what feels like being buried may, in fact, be the very place where something new will take root. And I will walk with her, as someone once walked with me...if she lets me. ******************************* This is the first chapter in an unfolding story.
