I would like all of you to come here and tell us who inspires you. Someone you know or want to know. This is another Serious topic so no screwing around as I will be posting personal and very sensitive things here.

With a open heart and soul, freedom is your only goal.
"Free with wings to fly above the Earth to heal all that is wrong."
My Grandmother meant so muh to me and losing ehr back in 1998 was probably one of the toughest things in my life that I had to endure. She was the source of everything that inspired me back then and still is now. I spent summers and then lived with my granma and my granpa so I got expecially close to them. It was like they were my parents in a way. I cared for them like I care for Emily now.
I was told when I was younger that somedays I would walk across the field which seperated my parents and my grandparents house with a can of soup and a diaper. Grandma would be waiting for me and would take care of me that day. Also when I was younger and not feeling good my mom told me Grandma was the only one that could get me to eat and could get me to go to sleep. So we had that connection Emily and I do now. During the winter months my mom would bundle me up and send me on the path that my grandpa shoveled to Grandma and Grandpa's house with once again soup and a diaper. Mom would watch me from the tiem I left the house until I arrived safely at my Grandparent's house. I lived not far from them until I was about 6 and that is when we made the big move. We moved from Moose Lake, Minnesota to Cameron, Wisconsin which is about a two hour drive. This hurt me so much cause I couldn't just go to my Grandparent's house whenever I wanted anymore but I had to wait till we went to visit or until the came here to visit.
Times were hard for me not seeing them at all for months and months on end. But I finally got my wish, Grandma and Grandpa said I could spend the whoel summer with them and that made my whole school years go much faster. The trips to and from Minnesota didn't last long for they moved closer to me. They moved to the Barron area so now it was easier to see them. My grandma and I now could spend time together on a normal basis. This drew us even closer that before and brought that connection back into my life and into hers. I knew her health wasn't the best because of all the pills she took but I never knew that her life would end like it did.
Grandma was there for me as a friend whenver times were bad for me. She seemed to bring up my spirit like no other person could do. She was my best friend throughout most of my teen life and school career. I wish she could have been there on my graduation day for it was my proudest moment in life and she would ahve made it much better. After her passing I was in a slump for a while and didn't realyl know what to do next. But I remembered that she always told me when she died not to keep thinking of the past but thinking of the future. So with that in mind I moved on and did something with my talents. I wrote poems, many of them. Some for her some for just no reason at all. I was beginning to be happy again, then a year passed and the day she died arrived and brought me down. I knew she wouldn't come back now and I needed something to keep me going. I started my homepages and vented my sadness and happiness through it and now three years later I am here at the crossroads in my life once again.
I have Emily and Ange two people I love alot in my life. But one thing is missing and that is my Grandmother. I wish Ange and Emily could have seen how much she meant to me and how much she affected my life before her death. I know that can't happen. I don't go to her grave that much anymore for it brings back those painful memories that I don't want to relive again. But I know I need to go back and finally say my goodbyes and move on slowly but surely. I need a closure now more than anything and this little memorial for her is helping me vent my sadness pretty well. For now I need to say one more thing, one last goodbye to her on here:

"I MISS YOU GRANDMA AND I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU IN HEAVEN....."
The Final Goodbye
The time comes when we all say our final goodbye
Some maybe earlier than others
The families come from near and far
To see you on your final day of glory
To see your final resting place
To say their final goodbye....
We all hope and pray
That we don't go so soon
But sometimes the Great Gods have
A different plan....
So when it is your time to turn in
Your time card on Earth
For a life of lesser responsibilities
Give your family the final chance
To give their
Final Goodbye....
So after all the goodbyes are given
And all the tears are shed
Your family is ready
For your final goodbye....
Now it is time for you to rest
Rest in your final resting place
To be the one to hold a spot forever
In mother Earth
And in all the hearts that love you....
The final goodbye maybe long or short
But no matter how long the goodbye
Your always
Beheld in our
Eyes
Minds and
Souls
As the one who gaves us all the love
And support we needed
When we gave our
Final Goodbye....
As the days go on I forget some things about her and I am sure as the years fade away so will some of her memories. But I will never forget her as she taught me alot about myself and made thrive to become the person I am today. I know she would be mad at some of the choices I have made but she would be proud of the things I have accomplished. I miss her dearly..She was my inspiration, my soul mate, and the person that I will judge all people on...

The person that inspires me is the person who has taught me everything I need to know and that is my mother. I love her so much and I dont know what I would do without her.
