I do realise it is a gift to have a grand mom for 42 years, to be in a close knit family like this and to be her grand child. I was the biggest chatterbox among her grand children and for that reason, i used to be her favorite grand child.<br /><br />I brought a set of her clothes ( the typical keralite dress), Mundu, Chatta ( the white blouse) and a pothamundu ( something like a Dupatta, worn like a half-saree) with me. Not that i need it to remember her. but, it helps to look at it and smell her.<br /><br />thanks for sharing my grief Gils. It helps more than you know. :-)Vincyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05575941564548214423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18228769.post-75155286300736504692012-11-09T12:21:47.319+05:302012-11-09T12:21:47.319+05:30Don't be apologetic abt sharing your grief.

I may not be able to fully understand well, but at some level, can relate to the kind of emotions - - I have known what it is to miss the house and the people you spend some cherished moments in/with. But, we must be thankful for the riches we have received in the name of family, isn't it?? She will continue to live through you in your values, in the kind of passion she has instilled in you (as in her grandchildren)! Take care!!<br /><br />Regarding your agony of the loss, Like Becca's mom tells in Rabbit hole- the pain does not go away fully. But it gets better, from something that you try to come under from, to something like a brick that you can hold in your pocket. <br /><br />PS: Have been reading your posts for a while, couldnot resist commenting on this.RSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18228769.post-54594158861210040762012-11-09T06:33:24.625+05:302012-11-09T06:33:24.625+05:30hmm...type adichi mudikka mansillama mudicha post ...hmm...type adichi mudikka mansillama mudicha post mathiri iruku..i can relate so much to this post. enga paatiyum ditto ithey mathiri thaan. i actually typed a page lengthy comment and deleted it :) postavay potrulaam nu. i think u r blessed to be in such a wonderful family setup..to've been related to such a lovely and strong person..if u can carryon her traits to a reasonable level guess it would make the multi talented person in u even better :)gilshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03259194565523548553noreply@blogger.com
