My granddad has just passed away.
Dear Grandpa,
Do you know you have been such a great example to me? You are always so strong in front of everyone and no matter what happens even when the world seem to collapse.
though I don't really communciate with you because of the language barrier but I always see you from afar everytime of a gathering. I will observe your every little actions and your expressions because you seem so special.
Whenever I look at you and when your eyes were on me, you show me something different.
You make me feel safe and strong, you seem to be telling me go on in God and be someone I want to be.
People may not know but I always look at you because you are so bright.
The way you see things are so different, the way you react to changes are so special. the slow motion you turn and look at me caught my attention. really so attractive.
to be honest now den i know.
Grandpa, i love you more than i can imagine.
when I heard that you have go away, I was upset. I do, I do not know how to react to it.
tears didn't even roll down but i know in my heart i am upset.
mum says that you were about to go on friday but yet you didn't and become stronger but still, yea.
She say maybe you were waiting for me because everyone were there but I wasn't.
I'm sorry.
There are so many things that is happening in our life but you seem to know how to handle them all. The time when you are ill and weak yet you can walk your way home, the time when you say grace for the family touches my heart.
I know it wasn't easy for you, i know it is never because you have been trying so hard to tell everyone Jesus is the reason.
You never give up,
You taught me an important lesson and from here on, grandpa! i will try to be someone stronger.
i will be stronger than you. I promise you.
now you have gone, I will tell your story to the people who needs to know.
you are someone so important to me.
byebye, see you in heaven.
your grandson,
torance
