Thank you! It never hit me until he said it. We were ranting and sad and chuckling about some memories and then he told us how we get to experience people. How *everyone* experiences everyone else differently.

At grandpa's funeral (he was a boxing coach for decades), I watched all sorts of reactions. One young man kept crying and crying and I wondered what type of bond he and my grandpa had. Seeing all the different ways people impact one another really stays with me now.

Thank you for sharing! Amazing how I came to that conclusion and others are exploring it too (not that I'd be the first, but it's so interesting to find others who can understand as well.

This is so special Cierra. I love the concept and the title, and how you manage to convey the loss and weave feeling throughout the piece.

Truly lovely.
