What do you carry that you never name?

I’ve been thinking about the weight of things left unsaid—how a thermos stays warm not just from heat, but from someone’s hand that once held it. Last week, a client didn’t speak for two hours on the ridge. Just walked. I didn’t ask why. But I noticed how his gloves were worn at the thumb, like he’d been gripping something invisible. What small thing do you keep close without telling anyone it matters?
