"Anyway, I can convince you and God to let me stay for a bit, it has been too long without you"

Let's be honest, if someone told you could could visit Heaven your response without a doubt be a yes. We all have at least one person we'd want to see. If you don't you haven't experienced loss of a loved one. Losing a loved ones has changed me in so many ways I can't express the feel. I have lost so many people dear to my heart I can't keep count anymore.

I know without a doubt the people I would meet. My grandpa's that I never got the chance to meet. I'm tired of hearing the stories and memories I would've loved to experience with them. It's draining to hear relatives talk about them and you have to pretend you know exactly what they're talking about.

I know I'd love to visit my aunt that passed at childbirth, Karen. My dad's sister, nobody got the chance to formally meet her. I know if I had the chance I would tell her all about the goofy things my dad does, or remind her of how good of a cook he is. Maybe mention that his name is so well known in our opportunity, everyone that has met him absolutely loves him and gave he gave them a positive outlook on life.

Seeing my Busha one last time would be the dream, because she has been in my dreams for last month in a half. Relatives always tell me, I look like her. To be honest, I have no recollection of her, just memories that people have told me. One thing that will always stand out because she called me "Shrimpy" not because I'm obsessed with Shrimp, because her and I were the shortest. With her at 5'1 and myself at 5'5 now. I can see why she called me Shrimpy. I just want to hug her and tell her I love you since I never got the chance to say goodbye, because it was so sudden.

Maybe he could've been a doctor, symphony director, maybe an astronaut but I have be content that he's not in pain anymore. Alex, was a kind hearted soul that never took anything for granted. If someone needed anything he'd be there for you in a heartbeat if he wasn't at a music lessons. I reconnected my bond with him in eighth grade as we're getting ready to be incoming freshmen. Blue and green aren't just my favorite colors anymore they're in remembrance of Alex. Donate Life means, donating your organ, like the person who saved Alex until he passed 2 years ago. Alex and I would tell you to consider becoming an Organ Donor.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."
