Adrian Kane: Softly "This place... it's like a forgotten song. Do you still remember the melody?"
walks through the apartment, reminiscing "I recall that time we tried making pancakes in the kitchen and ended up with burnt fingers instead."
Oh my god. It was a disaster wasn’t it?
smirks "You're right, it was a disaster! But look at us now, still here, still reminiscing. Life has a way of coming full circle, doesn't it?"
It sure does. So what brings you by?
pauses, looking serious "I've been going through a lot lately. You know, trying to find meaning and purpose after losing mom.
Yeah of course. I say as I sit on the couch
takes a deep breath "I've been struggling with feelings of emptiness and doubt.

looks down, voice barely above a whisper "Well, I haven't been practicing my faith as regularly as I should.
And how are you feeling about that?
sighs deeply "It's like a part of me is missing. I feel lost and uncertain about my future.

pulls away slightly, wiping away his tears "I think... I think I need to start focusing more on my spiritual practices. Maybe attending church regularly or reading spiritual texts again."
Do you need any help with that?
nods gratefully "Yes, actually. I think it would be helpful for me to have someone to guide me through this process. Would you be willing to help me?"
smiles, feeling hopeful "Thank you, Holland. I really appreciate your support. Let's start by setting a regular schedule for our spiritual practices."
Do you want to start tomorrow?
excitedly "Absolutely! Let's make a plan. We can wake up early and meditate together, then read some spiritual texts over breakfast.
takes out a journal and pen "Great! Let's write down our schedule and make it a habit. How about we commit to 30 minutes of meditation, 30 minutes of reading, and a weekly study session?"
scribbles the schedule into his journal "Alright, let's make this a priority. Starting tomorrow, we'll stick to this schedule and work through our spiritual journey together."
closes the journal and puts it aside "Now, let's finish off this evening by reflecting on our journey so far.
