you laugh until you cry, you cry until you laugh, and everyone must breathe until their dying breath

Grandma's funeral service was this morning. It was.. hot and tense and a bit of drama but nice, for the most part. I cried. Somehow my uncle Scott (who is pretty much my least favorite member of both sides of my family argh he is a dick) managed to make me cry by bringing up what was, apparently, a sermon at some bat mitzvah like, 30 years ago

Your attitude in the face of all of this is amazing. :) I think your grandmother would definitely be proud, and we should all celebrate life as much as possible. ♥ After all, what else are we here for?

I think that writing that memorial post will be cathartic, too. Writing can be such a release.

I always have envied how close you are with your family. I've never really been able to get close to mine... So cherish it, yeah? :]

I really like that mirror/window idea. I think I want to keep that with me, too.

I know how you feel with the wanting to be able to express yourself better.

I hope you feel better. ♥ I missed you this weekend!

Wow, the pace and emotion of this entry are proof enough of how much this has affected you. It's so different, and I mean that in the best way.

Your grandma would be so proud. You're an amazing gal & its wonderful to hear that, despite the sad reason, you reconnected with some members of your family. Take care of yourself, darlin'.

*Huggles* Oh Liz I'm so proud of you, and I know you're grandma is too. Shes looking down smiling at the awesome grand-daughter she has.

If you ever need anything, and I know you already know this, but I'm only a phone call, drive, instant message away. I love you. Keep your head up and keep rising above all the pain. <3
