“Create a safe space within yourself that no one will ever find, somewhere the madness of this world can never touch.” ~Christy Ann Martine Losing my grandmother was like losing the one person who had always been my anchor.
She was my steady rock, my quiet cheerleader, and the only person who truly made me feel that I was perfectly fine, just as I was.
I never had to pretend around her or hide my mistakes or messiness. She had this way of being present and calm, even when life around us wasn’t, and that gave me a sense of security that, looking back, I had leaned on more than I ever realized.
Her gentle spirit taught me what , and without fully realizing it, I relied on her presence to keep me grounded and to make sense of things when everything else felt uncertain.
