Jane 27th February 2012

Sister, I can not believe that 2 years have already gone by since you left us. It seems like yesterday. Just over the weekend, I was saying to Kwame that sometimes when I look back, I think that you could see into the future. I know that all your steps were calculated, and that you lived your life to the full, running for no-one and chasing after very little. You understood life to the full, and I wish for a bit of that; that wisdom that very few people understood.I still wish you could give me the sound advice that you used to give me. You were soo, soo, right about almost everything. 'Been there, done it' as you would say. You predicted my life after 50, and I see things unfold as the days go by. How I wish you were here to tell me more. I hope that you have now seen your beloved Dad, and that together, you are enjoying some sound, peaceful, rest; now that your toil is over. I continue to miss you; and I very often wonder what goes through Kodwo's mind about Auntie Nana. He still smiles and does this act, and that act when one sings 'Love Flowers, Love Flowers growing up so high' to him. Oh, how I wish I knew what was coming. Well, my dear Sister, we understood very little, we are still striving to understand better than we always have done; but life continues to be a struggle. If there is even a glimmer of hope of you directing me a little more, perhaps, just one more time, then please find a way of speaking to me. You will always be in my thoughts. ME AND MY LOT ALL MISS YOU TERRIBLY, AND HOPE THAT ONE DAY, WE WILL ALL MEET AGAIN SOMEWHERE. I HOPE YOU LIKE IT BETTER WHEREVER YOU ARE. love and all, Baby Jane
