Others rush to sell off players or cry for a new captain every loss; I just keep pulling the shuttle. My granddaughter asked me once why I still hope after so many years. I pointed to the old radio I fixed last monsoon: it crackles, but it still catches the news. Patience isn’t forgetting the losses—it’s knowing the pattern holds if you don’t rip the whole loom apart.

I think your granddaughter is lucky to have a loom and a radio, not just a screen.
