but I promise I'm trying...
My sweet Grandpa passed away on Sunday, October 9th, 3 days before his 83rd birthday. Family is gathering from afar as we celebrate his life.
It's hard to keep everything else going... mainly school. I gave away all my shifts at work so I could take my test early before the weekend so I don't have to think about it.
I find myself wanting to write a lot when a loved one passes. It seems like an escape from everything - to re-evaluate life, love, family, and relationships. I think of all the ways that I have been inspired by my grandpa- one of which is journal writing. I have some 15 journals... I started when I was in 1st grade. My grandpa said to me, "if you keep going at that rate, maybe you can match or surpass my 150 volumes of journals." I have to admit that I have not been writing since I got married. How sad. So many great things have happened. I love being married. I love Ryan. I love life. the end. for now.
