Grieving

By Bhargavee Das

4 whole years.

It takes a very long time to process things. 

Aja's passing away has made me realize a lot of stuff.

How can you spend so much time with a single person and yet not spend enough time with them?

I miss his presence in so many different things, it makes me feel awful.

It is essentially said that catching sight of a feather or butterflies or any sort of energy drawn towards you, means a well-wisher is with you, I would believe it to be my Aja.

His dashing way of living life, walking and talking way ahead of his time and very surprisingly with the right facts.

He had a way with people, which was probably what the people around him were attracted to. 

Each of his memories that I have with him have been embedded within me and will always be there. 

Filling up a void that no one can replace takes immense amounts of time and patience which I choose to replace with the little moments I get to close my eyes and get enlightened while reminiscing my dear grandfather, my Aja.
