Psalm 49:15 “But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave, for He shall receive me.”“When someone you love is gone, the pain is unlike anything you’ve felt before, but you can let the pain dominate you or choose to dominate the pain. Even when one has time to process these situations, grief takes its form, from feeling everything to feeling numb in seconds, although people are around me giving comforting words, that doesn’t ease my soul, losing my grandmother just 5 months and 10 days after losing my grandfather definitely has been the hardest thing in my life, but I’m very grateful I got to experience living with them, seeing them love each other, there never was a love so true like theirs, grandma used to say she wanted to join her husband in heaven and would cry remembering the little things, when he would tell her how much he loved her and if God knew it, let the world know it too. Grandma loved music, plants, and her family above all things, family always came first to her, she loved each and everyone one of her kids and grandkids, always was happy to have company, she had such tenacity, attitude, her wit was what captured a lot of people, and ability to talk to practically anyone, I’ll cherish that along with every memory, every lesson, she will be in our hearts forever until we are reunited in that heaven God has promised all of us and one she so rightfully deserved, we’ll miss you dearly, until we meet again mama fela, heaven earned one of the brightest stars, your light shall never fade. I love you, you are forever. “
