The candles, the picture frames, even a cardboard box marked JUNK DRAWER, priced at two dollars. She's had a hard year, and she's convinced that if she can clear out the reminders, the heaviness will go with them.

When a quiet neighbor named Edie asks about the box Donna is holding a little too tightly, the truth comes out: a painted rock from the year her husband was in the hospital, a hospital bracelet from the day he came home, a card with a verse that held her together when the job didn't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 20px;\"\u003eEdie shares the story of Samuel raising a stone and naming it Ebenezer, and Donna begins to see that the things she wanted to throw away were never reminders of the battle.
