I really wanted to be with my grandma when she died. I imagined a beautiful, peaceful moment when she would simply stop breathing and slip away, but I wasnt there and thats ok because she died long before her body did. She died before I left to come home and deep down I know that. Ive never lost someone close to me and I thought Id be super sad, but strangely Im more happy for her than I am sad for any of us. My grandma lived a long, meaningful life and in this situation, knowing she wasnt taken too soon and knowing that this is the way the circle of life works I can honestly say that shes in a better place. Seldom are those words appropriate. She loved her Jesus and she knew he loved her. Im glad shes with Him. I wonder what she thinks. I hope shell come to visit. Ill be looking for little signs from her.
