i took this photo of my grandmother ten years ago. i was a junior in high school, she was the ripe age of 84.
she turned 94 this year, has been without her spouse for more years than i'd like to think about, and is forever ingrained in my memory as she looked over a decade ago in this photo.
i have mixed feelings about growing as old as my grandmother is now.
and if i'm being honest, i think i'd rather not.
then again, being able to watch your favorite movie or read your favorite book everyday like you're experiencing it for the first time, every time, does kind of sound like a dream come true.
