FALL TO FLY (:

i havent been blogging consistently the past two months, whenever i had the inspiration or feeling to do so, blogger got abit crazy on me.

today is grandmas birthday.
well, other than Jesus,
shes one person who stuck with me through life, through what life would throw in my face.
shes one person i can be totally comfortable being around, without having anything to prove.
shes one person who bathed me when i was young, scolded me while i grew up, taught me values as a person and loved me for who i am.
shes one person who would go the extra mile for me.
i remember her telling me a few times, '' though i scold u and all, but if anyone touches my grand daughter i will hunt them down and kill them, i go jail also nevermind. Actually i love you very much one.''
as u can see( and i hope ) she was referring to it metopherically, not a very spiritual statement i know but a very real one. and of course, she doesnt quite realise that if u kill someone, you go to jail hahaa. so i say its not a literal statement. whenever i hear that statement, inside me i smile cos she always says it as if i never knew. but i always did.
shes one person who picks up after me, cooks for me, buys my favourite food without really asking for anything in return.
shes one person i have had the biggest quarrels with, but yet the best quality moments.
shes one person who always fetches me up and down.
shes one person whom i grew up sleeping with, and couldnt sleep without.
shes one person whom i care the most for, though i seldom say it, yet there are times when i feel like ive neglected her the most.
shes one person who has inspired me with her simple faith in God, her fervency in sharing the gospel with her friends through acts of kindness like spending time with them, cooking for them.
initially i thought it was normal for people to be doing such things, but as i grew older, i realised such acts of kindness was less than common, it was almost extinct. and that was when i knew she was more than ordinary, she was extraordinary.
shes one person who has a big circle of friends, and i see how these relationships has held her in place through the good and bad times.
shes one person who sings like no one is hearing, her karaoke sessions at home makes her seem oblivious to the outside world sometimes.
shes one person whom i can lie on, feeling at home, feeling the most comfortable.
shes one person who sews pillow cases, home clothes, cny pjs like no other has.
shes one person who fetches me up and down, and when shes frustrated, she always says " this is the last time im gg to fetch you" and up till now, she still fetches me around.
shes one person whom i can be totally at ease with, not talking over the dinner table with her doesnt make me feel awkward.
shes one person that i dont see any need to prove to becos shes seen me grown up through the years.
shes one person whom i have shared most of my life with, the good and bad.
shes one person of which through her simple faith and simple prayers every night brought the whole family back to God.
shes one person who instills family values through the most simple ways. " you only have one brother/ one family/ if u dont do this/ love them/ do that for them, who will? "
and i know, shes the one person ill miss most if she ever passes on.
thats the triviality of life, but i know shes found in the arms of GOD.
but for now and the many more years that will come,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA!
