My granddaughter, Sawyer, is 10 years old.  She was born on February 10, 2009.  Her grandpa passed away in May of 2006.  The following is her writing in May 2019, about losing someone in your family.  My own grandfather passed away when my dad was only 12 years old.  I didn’t know anything about him, and no one talked to me about him, or shared anything about him with me.  He was just someone in my lineage. Her daddy has told her a lot about her grandpa, even though she didn’t know him, she thinks about him and wrote the following article.

If those in heaven have any idea of what's happening down here, I'm sure her Papa is smiling really big about now.

When you lose something you feel like a strawberry, hard on the outside and juicy on the inside.  When you lose something or somebody you feel like a piece of nothing.  The seeds on the strawberry are like the tears in your eyes. 
If you look around at a funeral then you have probably seen really emotional tears.  Probably so much it looks like the juice from a strawberry.  When I went to my great, great grandma’s funeral, I was really, really sad.

Sometimes you didn’t even see them or go to their funeral.  I know I have that problem with my Papa.  He was in the Army and somebody shot him in the leg.  He got a robotic leg.  But then he had cancer, so he died.  My sister saw him when she was a baby.  I didn’t even get to see him.

Quotes:

Forgiving someone of the pain and hurt they may have caused, does not make the act okay or release them from the responsibility of their actions..  It does; however, free you to let go of the past and live fully in the present, and journey well into the future.
