Where are you?  I wish you were still here.  I really miss you.  So much.  Recently, i just remebered something, in was staning in my bedroom and i suddenly remembered.  It was like I&#8217;d forgotten about it but then it seemed impossible.  You always told me to work hard, to work really hard at school so that I could be sucessful in life.  You also said to work really hard because you didn&#8217;t, although at the time I didn&#8217;t see why beacause you seemed pretty sucessful to me.  If i had a life like your i think i would be happy.   I don&#8217;t think I really took it in at the time, sure I did , I knew what you were saying but I never processed it properly or concidered what it meant.  I suppose thats what you do when you&#8217;re a child.  You gave me your school badge when I passed my 11+ and told mummy on the phone that the news had &#8216;made your year&#8217;.  That made me so pround.  I made me want to work hard for you.<br \/>\nLately I&#8217;ve been slacking.   I think, what are the real consequences? I can get away with not doing it so &#8211; whatever.  But, grandad, I got 50% in my end of year maths exam and it kind of jolted me back to reality.  But what actually worried me was not the mark but the fact that i didn&#8217;t feel any drive to do anything about it.  I kind of still don&#8217;t.  Once upon a time I would have.  Once upon a time I was top of the class in most subjects though.  I wish I could go back to that.  I wish I could go back and see you agin.  I would love that more than anything else.<br \/>\nYou going upset many people.  It was a bit of a shock and it&#8217;s taken us a while to get over it.  I don&#8217;t know if we are over it even now.  Its been a year and four months.<br \/>\nMummy hasn&#8217;t been sleeping and I think it affected her the most. If you are in heaven them please ask God to be with her.  I love you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How are you? Where are you? I wish you were still here. I really miss you.
