Grateful

  • Today's happy place In the sun remembering my Grampa
  • Today's Theme Song Long way home - Supertramp
  • A funny thing The Humane Society
  • Kiwi's Kitten Campaign the unconditional love well, when they want to

Today - three years ago today was my first day without my maternal grandfather.  Before he died holding my hand, I asked him two questions:

Was he scared?   His reply was "would you want to live like this?"  - my answer was "no way".  In that moment, I understood that if you took a position of love - you could not go wrong and it would bring you much strength.  I saw him get strong in front of my eyes - even tho his body was so weak. 

Did he get the letter I sent him in the summer of 1997?  ( I wrote a letter to each grandparent thanking them for minutia - each letter no less than 25 pages).  He replied that he did, he saved it.  Good.  He knew how much I loved him, how important he was to me, and the profound impact that he had on my life - and does have on my life in absentia.

Gramps - I'm still grateful for EVERYTHING you did for me, with me , and most of all to be the beneficiary of your love.  That in and of itself is a very precious gift.  Thanks.
