Ashes and Memories

Okay, so...

Stuff!

My great grandma, who was essentially my mom, died September 7, 2013. I think it’s cool that these days, I remember her birthday before I remember her...deathday? It’s a more positive day to remember, and I’m grateful for that.

Suffice to say, when she passed, I was Fucked. Up. She was my role model throughout my entire life...honestly the concept of a “soul mate” isn’t a stretch. In the note she left me when she died, she basically said as much. A month passed where I cried every single day about her, without fail. The first 4 days I basically just hung out in bed. To be honest, I still have an e-mail account I made for her, and when big things happen in my life, I write to it.

I’m doing much better now. But we’re having a situation with her ashes. She had 3 kids: my grandma, my great aunt, and my great uncle.

Great Grandma wanted to by buried by First Lutheran church, way out in the Midwest. Instead, my great aunt took her ashes for herself. Now that my great uncle has been diagnosed with stage IV bladder cancer, he is looking for closure. It’s a difficult time for the family. 4 years later, my great aunt has relented, and we’ve collectively made the decision to send off her ashes. 

I’m in a bit of a moral dilemma here. Some people are talking about taking tiny pieces of her ashes for themselves. I want to respect her wish, but even the tiniest amount of ashes would make me so happy. At the same time, I know her, very well, and what she would’ve wanted. I talked to her about this. tbh... I feel like she was picking First Lutheran partially because we didn’t want us squabbling amongst ourselves. My family members fought and were kicked out by hospital staff right over her hospital bed, so... I totally understand that. I was that constant voice of “guys, not here.” Remarkably, they listened to me.

I’m looking into either an urn necklace or a very, very small urn (talking maybe 0.5-1 gram of ash). Great Grandma had told me throughout her life that I’m her favorite person in the world. If anyone deserves pieces of those ashes, it’s her 3 biological children and me. I wouldn’t take the ashes if no one else is doing it. But if they are... Would it really be so bad if I took a little? I feel like a horrible person though. How are ashes gathered? Did they even get her entirety to begin with?

If I do go through with this, and I will only do so if people are already taking pieces, I think it would be a great time to get the memorial tattoo I’ve been planning forever. It would be a copy of her handwriting in the many letters she sent me. I must have about 50 pages, accumulated over the decades.

In closing... I have no idea what to do. I feel so greedy and wrong for wanting this, but I do want it so badly. It would be my most valued possession, one hundred fold. I can’t even begin to express how much I miss her, and how often, when I’m in a tough situations, I ask myself what she would do. What would she do in this situation? Yet another one of those times that I wish I could speak with her so badly.

I feel like people will judge me when they read this, like I’m just greedy and selfish... I rambled on a lot here, and I think part of it was my need to prove our closeness, and appease my guilt. Maybe I am greedy and selfish. I’m so conflicted.

ગુજરાતના પીપીઈ કીટના ઉત્પાદકોનો રાતા પાણીએ રોવાનો વારો

ગુજરાતના પીપીઈ કીટના ઉત્પાદકોનો રાતા પાણીએ રોવાનો વારો

અમદાવાદ : કોરોના સામેની લડત લડતા કોરોના વોરિયર્સની સુરક્ષા કરતા પર્સનલ પ્રોટેક્ટિવ ઇક્વિપમેન્ટ (પીપીઇ) કિટના ઉત્પાદન તરફ વળેલા ગુજરાતના ગાર્મેન્ટ યુનિટો હવે ઓછી માંગની સ્થિતિનો સામનો કરી રહ્યા છે અને અનેક યુનિટોમાં તેનું ઉત્પાદન અટકી ગયું છે.લગભગ 50 ટકા જેટલા યુનિટો પાસે પીપીઇ કિટના ઓર્ડર નથી તેથી તેમણે કામ અટકાવ્યું છે. રાજ્યનો ગાર્મેન્ટ ઉદ્યોગ માને છે કે દેશ પીપીઇ કિટ મુદ્દે આત્મનિર્ભર બની ગયો…

Lo got their hair cut today. It’s short, about ear-length or so. Insanely low maintenance. Naturally curly.

I think most of all ggma will be glad that the blond tips are gone.
