I found this picture of my Gramma, and it opened up some healing for me.

Journaling:
I always had a up and down relationship with my Grandma. I was never really sure where I stood with her at times. After she passed, my Dad told me some stories of her growing up years, and tragedies in her young adult days, and it cleared up many things for me. I saw this photo of her her as this sweet little girl and it really helped me to see her in a different light, but it was too late. She was already gone. It saddens me to know this little girl was so hurt and damaged that she didn’t know HOW to show love. It was not modeled for her.
