Dear Granny,
I was only 9 when you left this earth, but I still remember you just like it was yesterday. Words can't describe how much I miss you. I can still see your sepia brown skin, your silver curls, and your huge smile. Your love was unconditional and we could do no wrong in your eyes. Me and my little brother were always on some kind of adventure in your yard under that big tree, running through the garden barefoot, or just going for a walk to the creek. I learned how to cook my first meal in that old house. You lived a simple life. You didn't have running water or a bathroom, and at that age it didn't bother me. My dad always wanted to move you into a new a house, but you were just fine with staying in that old house. As I grew older I knew there was so much more the world had to offer beyond that old house, but I've always remained humble in my journey. I wish you were here, but I know you are watching. Everything I do now, I do for you; creating a better life for myself and others. But at the end of the day it doesn't matter how big or new your house is; it's not a home without love and happiness. Those things can't be bought. So my true reward is making you proud and making sure that no matter what I'm doing, it makes me happy.
