we seldom encounter these...

A weekend that makes the others weep beneath their ignorance. This weekend changed my life. Before this weekend I was one person and now I am awake.

It began the previous Friday the 12th i think. I met my grandfather and my mothers half siblings for the first time in my 17 years. I never felt the broken desire to see them. But when meeting them i saw the beauty and understood the beauty of family. I crumbled under my fail to awknowedge these people who were and have always been family.

I was there in a reunion for the sudden death of their mother, my  granpapa's wife, my mother's step mother, the other woman according to my Grandmother. I didn't know this woman but I owe her so much. If it was not for her i fear i would have never met my beautifful family. I thank her in what can only be called an ironic fashion. How is is that at the end of her days I am thanking a woman who tried so hard to keep my family and "hers" apart, for bringing us together. Well, perhaps that question of destiny can ever be answered with logic but my heart reveals a whimisical truth beneath the reality.

When I saw these people in the home my grandfather shared with the source of this grand happening I felt like i unlocked a dusty time capsele thar

OMG AT THE TYPOS AND INCOMPLETION will finish laterz
