Day 24: Things You Want to Say to Five Different People.
Grandpa: I hate that I never got to know you since you died when I was only 7 months old. But know that every time I find out I have something in common with you I'm beyond happy because you're a part of my blood that was stolen from me. At least in the similarities we share I can discover a tiny bit about who you were. Our ability to cook awesome Italian food, our love of fencing, our love of family, the nickname you gave me - Missy. I cherish all of it. I always am glad when I get stories about you from the rest of the family.
Nana: You're still my greatest role model. My entire life I've strived to be just like you - Kind, generous, strong, loving, serious, fierce, and with an heir of cold beauty. I miss you all the time and I hate I never got to know you as an adult because I feel like our connection would have just been better.
I'm not sure who else I have to say things to. There are other people who I never got closure with, but I don't really feel I have things left unsaid. I'm okay with where things are. I got goodbyes or I let it go so long ago I have nothing...
