Sara Mitich Instagram – I lost both my grandparents, 3 days apart, a couple weeks ago. One was somewhat “expected” (what a weird thing to even type) and one was not. I am not a stranger to death knocking on my door, nor am I wildly familiar with it. I am not afraid of death in any way, I know it’s such a natural part of life, and I find their almost joint passing wildly and beautifully poetic.
 
Death always reminds me of some things and inspires me, so I thought I’d share. Swipe through the slides for more details and stories behind them, but here are the bullet points:
 
1. Be Kind
2. Be Compassionate (a big, heartfelt thank you to @staplescanada)
3. The Tendency To Judge
4. Forgive
5. Drama Addiction
6. The Way You Treat Yourself Is The Way You Treat Others
7. Surrender
8. Life Is Short
9. A picture of my Grandparents
 
I’m so grateful for both my grandparents. They taught me so much. They had a big hand in my upbringing. They both worked so hard, sacrificed a lot for my family, and both had such incredible wisdom and life stories.
 
They brought so much love into my life. I started writing a list of everything they taught me, introduced me to, and changed in me, but the list is too long and to choose only a few things doesn’t do them justice. So I’ll hold on to those things in my heart, for me.
 
I’m also so grateful and not in the least bit surprised that their passing has taught me even more about myself – about the person I am and the person I want to be. I am so grateful for this recalibration and remembrance that’s happening quietly inside me.
 
Until we meet again, Baba i Deda. Hvala za sve.❤️🌟🙏🏻 | Posted on 06/Jan/2024 20:10:07
