A Day To Remember

The 29th Of December every year is a sad day for me and my family as it is a day that 14 years ago my hero and Grandad took his left breath and went to live in heaven. To this day it is a day that we always do something as a family to celebrate the brilliant man he was and the life that he had, this year we all went out for a nice meal. This year however hit me harder than others, I ignored social media and anyone that tried to contact me and I spent the day thinking of my Grandad. This year has been the best year of my life and I've accomplished so much. I finished my college course with the highest grade possible,I went and worked in America for two months and then spent a month solo travelling around America. I got my mental state to the best way its been in years and Im still continuing to work on it. I got into university and moved to Sheffield becoming more independent and learning what its like to live on my own but also with flatmates. And when I think of all the things small and big that I have achieved this year I can't help but become saddened by the thought that I can't share it all with my Grandad as I know he would be so proud, but I know he is always watching and will continue to be by my side every day. So I plan to make every year from now better than the last and to keep making my Grandad proud. I miss you more and more everyday Grandad, I love you xx
