Great Grandma

I am crying at the ceremony.

I am too young to celebrate your life like everyone else.

You lived a full long life and we are beyond blessed for that.

After the ceremony I’m reintroduced to distant cousins.

And I used to feel embarrassed and ashamed to say this but that day slowly became one of my favorites.

I have never had such a good day with relatives until then.

After the funeral we went to my aunts birthday party and it only got better from there.

I miss you and I miss my cousins I rarely see.
