Amentalio
n.
the sadness of realizing that you’re already forgetting sense memories of the departed—already struggling to hear their voice, picture the exact shade of their eyes, or call to mind the quirky little gestures you once knew by heart.
Greek αμήν (amḗn), amen + μενταλιό (mentalió), locket. Pronounced “ah-men-tal-yoh.”
