somber

my lolo francis passed today.

i'm surprised how saddened i am with the news.
i feel heartbroken.
i made him tell the story of his life once. it was a school project-- to interview an older man or woman and write a paper about their life. i wish i could re-read what i wrote. or better yet, i wish i still had that recording. he was an accomplished man who did a lot and gave a lot. i'm very blessed to have known him.

this is a gentle reminder to myself. take nothing for granted dear christie. and love with all your heart.

deep brown wrinkles set
smiling face of wisdom passed
are no more today
