I don't feel like myself right now...there is an emptiness in my heart. I found about your death earlier this evening. My mother called me to informed me that you had passed away. Grandma, we didn't have a great relationship. I don't have many happy memories with you. I never understood the reason behind all your actions of hate. I don't need to understand it. I know we are all imperfect. I know that God loves you no matter what, and I should love you too. At this very moment I wish we would have had a better relationship. I wish we would have baked bread together. I wish you would have taught me how to cook your delicious Pozole. I wish we would have gone for walks together, or just talk outside your patio. I wish I could have spent the night in your home and have freshly baked cookies with milk sitting right next to you. I wish so many things. But your time here on earth is gone. I hope I can see you again someday, because your life is not over. Your body is gone, but your spirit still remains. I pray that your spirit might be at peace where you are right now. I am grateful for the opportunity I had to see you last summer; it is a good last memory of you. I want to thank you because you made it possible for me to have the father I have. You contributed to my existence, for that I am so thankful. Today I have learned that life is too short to hold on to negative feelings, I am so sorry for that. I promise to forget and forgive. I really want to just feel pure love and I promise to work on that. Until we meet again.

Oh Erika, I'm so sorry. You are very good at expressing your feelings through words. It was done so well it was like I feeling them with you. You have an eternal and God-like view of all of it, and that is GOOD. I'm going to be praying for you during this time of sorrow...
