For quite a while now I've been kinda out of the habit of posting about personal thoughts/feelings/experiences on my journal, and only really post my book/movie reactions anymore. I'm not sure why. I used to have a lot to say!

My grandmother died this week. I feel like I can't not say something about this. But I also don't know what to say about it.

She'd had a bad stroke a decade ago that affected her language faculties pretty severely. But despite her general lack of words I always knew without a doubt that she loved me massively and unconditionally.

Her presence in my life has been a gift. I'm going to miss her.
