so i had to go to walmart and pick up a calculator for school. i was walking through the parking lot when i saw this navajo grandma trying to get out of the backseat of a car. she was having trouble so i stopped and helped her. i was helping her get out of the car the same way i used to help my grandma. she was holding my hand for a while to steady herself and i swear her hand felt just like my grandma's.

in that moment, out of nowhere it hit me. i missed my grandma so much it hurt. i started to tear up and i couldnt have spoken to save my life. she didn't say anything and i didn't say anything. she steadied herself and i walked away. i was in such a fog for the next 20 minutes, i have no idea what i did.

i got home and started emptying out jewelry boxes and came across these necklaces. my grandma gave me these when i was still a teenager. i've never worn them because they were too important to me to ruin.
