Even When We Don’t Speak

In the 57th volume of the Memory Lane series, Celine Ong writes of the quiet spaces between words — the silences that still carry care, the small gestures that reveal understanding, and the strength that grows when connection doesn’t need sound.

Through poetic reflections on work, family, friendship, and the subtleties of emotion, Even When We Don’t Speak explores what remains gentle in the unseen corners of everyday life. This is a book for anyone who has felt unseen but still chosen to stay kind — a soft testament to empathy, restraint, and quiet strength.
