Dear Grandma,
If not for you, I would be a different man.
You took a child who wasn’t your duty
and made me your own heartbeat.
You sheltered me beneath wings
that God Himself must’ve placed on your back.
You were my guardian,
my quiet angel,
my safest place in a world that wasn’t always kind.
You protected my trust like it was precious gold,
and you never let even my own mother come between us.
Our bond was something holy,
something chosen,
something eternal.
This year, I rise for you.
No more back-stepping,
no more letting the world or its noise pull me off my path.
From this point forward, I walk with purpose —
with your strength wrapped around my shoulders
like a mantle I inherited from your love.
You showed me what a real woman is.
A queen who never gossiped,
never belittled,
never let bitterness stain her spirit.
A wife who honored her husband,
a servant of Jehovah who lived her faith quietly,
gracefully,
powerfully.
As my mother grows older,
I see your reflection in her —
the same calm dignity,
the same softness wrapped around steel,
the same beauty that life could not break.
Grandma, you were my first home.
My compass.
My example of what goodness looks like
when it walks on two feet.
Everything I become from this year on
is for you —
because you believed in me
before anyone else ever did.
I carry you with me.
In my steps.
In my strength.
In the man I am still becoming.
Thank you for being my light.
Thank you for being my forever.
