Reminder of Life

Today is the one year anniversary of my grandmother's passing. She was the light in my family. The strength. The tenacity and hope. I remember her every day and remember that I strive to have the same values and morals as this woman.

She was my Nana. My Muriel. My Mother's Mother. Without her, I would not be here.

I have an unbelievable relationship with my mother. She is my best friend and I can feel her even when we are apart. This evening I was sitting on my couch watching TV and just knew something was wrong. I called my mom. She was crying. She took the passing of my grandmother very hard and I know when the time comes that I have to say goodbye it will be extremely hard for me to do so.

So to honor the memory of my grandmother. I pray to the heavens that she is happy, healthy and wise. I pray she is with my grandfather. I pray that she will see my mom and let her know she is okay. I pray she watches over me and see's that I am happy and successful. I pray that I will one day see her again. I love you Nana and know in my heart of hearts you will always be with me.
