Ever think that maybe fame is about the worst thing in the world?

I think, in a small way, someone close to me, believed that to be true.

I'm tired of proclaiming her passing. I'm tired of remembering it. I just really want to go back home and be alone with my thoughts.

In the wake of her passing, I'm feeling much better keeping her lessons and her memories to myself. It's not for me to give anyone else what she gave me.

I'm not her shadow, I'm no her messenger and I'm not her eulogist...I'm her grandson and she was my grandma. Let her keep her legacy and let me keep mines. Whatever love we shared is between us and us alone.

I don't want to share my grandmother to the world, just as I never want to share the sanctity of my family history with anyone.
