Pain

A story about Gia

... My grandmother told me that she was born with a pain built within.


... Here, you can see it in my eyes.


My grandmother was the most interesting and strongest woman I knew. She had the brightest, most garish outfits and she lived her life at the precipice of feeling everything good and bad all at once.


... I am not sad of being gifted with the same emotional state,


... I now know that it is a gift to feel with totality.
