It's going to be one year since we lost my grandfather on the 30th of October. I feel your pain as I haven't gotten over the death of my grandpa yet. We were so close, I was his first grandchild and my school (Uni) is close to his house. Even at the point of death, this man treated me like the baby no one treats me like anymore.

I almost cried while I read your letter but it made me smile in the end. To those of us here, let's continue to live well. Sending you love Wamide.

I just had to.

I'm sorry you lost your grandpa, never met any of mine but it's sad to lose anyone. I hope you express your emotions but you're also gentle with yourself. I pray your entire family feels warmth when the memory of Grandpa John sweeps through their mind. Godspeed.

P. S, I'm a huge fan of your notes. Thank you Wamide for always sharing.

Hi Tobiloba. Thank you for your kind words and for finding my notes useful. I’m so sorry you never got to meet your grandparents.

P.S: You’ll make an amazing grandparent (no pressure 😂, the universe will align)
