Have you ever heard of a wind phone? It's not your average communication device. Imagine a disconnected phone, often placed in a beautiful, natural setting. Its purpose? To provide a place to 'talk' to loved ones who have passed away.
The concept originated in Japan, created by Itaru Sasaki in 2010 before the devastating tsunami of 2011. He built his own wind phone as a way to cope with the loss of his cousin. After the tsunami, his phone booth became a place of solace for many mourning the loss of family and friends.
Wind phones offer a unique way to grieve and connect. Speaking your thoughts and feelings into the phone, letting the wind carry your words away, can be incredibly therapeutic. It's a tangible way to process emotions and maintain a connection with those we miss. They are a beautiful reminder that even though our loved ones are gone, they are never truly forgotten.
