My Grandfathers.


"Are any of your grandparents still alive?" - L.T
"No, all three are gone."
"You mean two." - L.T
"No... three."




Had a conversation with my cousins, B.K and L.T about their grandfather's recent death. They then asked me about my grandfathers, and enquired if any of them are still alive, excluding the same grandfather we share.

I felt a pang in my heart, during the conversation. It was the old familiar pain I feel, each time I remember my step granfather (mother's side) and my grandad (dad's). It still hurts. Talking about the two I knew. My heart does ache at the very thought of them. Even speaking about them will effectively bring my energy down for a bit.

I miss them.

But, I know that I will meet them again..One day.
