True. It’s like when my grandmother died and my father was puzzled that my brother and I didn’t look to busted up.

He asked “Aren’t you sad in the slightest about your grandmother and her sudden death?”.

I just smiled and said “Nope. She had it coming. She was 89 and now she is with her best friend in the world, grandpa. So I am happy for her”.

She never uttered an unkind word, always met you with a smile and was just plain interested in what was going on in your life.

Just like my friend who is now 100 years and 3 months old.

That is what I aspire to be like (accept the she part).

(Boy do I have A LOT of work to do)
