The Grand Canyon
My sister and I always wanted to travel growing up, but coming from a lower class family and becoming teenage mothers, we’ve never gotten the opportunity. She always said that she wanted to see the Grand Canyon but surprisingly that was never on my list. I wanted to see what was outside of our borders. I never wanted to stay in it much less see more of it. I’m 27 now and my sister died six years ago. I’ve never been quite the same mentally or emotionally but now I take care of her children and mine, gratefully. I’ve believed since then that I needed to somehow live and experience for the both of us, even buying those gross chocolate covered cherries she loved to somehow keep her alive. It’s like I think that buying stuff she loved would somehow keep her spirit around, knowing I don’t really believe in things like that. Which almost makes me mad at her for making me buy this god awful candy.
