I may not have been your grand daughter,
but I loved and respected you like a grand mother.
Every time I visited,
you would rest your hand in mine and say,
When nothing goes right just take a moment and pray,
remember Lord Buddha,
and what his preachings say.
I had just finished one of my exams
and i hear you're gone
i knew everyone wept, wept - a lot.
but I didn't.
as I know,
that you'll be in a better place,
and
that life does not always end at death.
that's what one of Lord Buddha's teachings said.
to the wonderful and humblest person i hardly got to spend time with.
sadly, she passed away today, May 14th 2014 on Buddha Jayanti (the same day as Buddha's birth & death)
