Endless beauty
Friday I spent the night at my grandma's house. My Granny lives right next door to her so I decided to go visit and I found her picking figs. She said the strangest thing to me.
Tiger Lily, I never realized how beautiful you are. I guess it's because I never see you in the sun, but in my dark house
I was quite taken back by this. It's not everyday, even when it's your great grandmother, that someone says that to you. I was flattered (which I seem to be a lot lately), but it was just a little on the weird side.
I think one day I'll have a fig bush in my yard though, for memory�s sake.
At my cousin's house I watched Sahara, and I don't think I will ever go to Africa. I never wanted to go in the first place, but now I know there is no way I will ever go. All the money in the world couldn't make me consent.
I hate it when I forget things. There's something else I wanted to write about, but for the life of me I can't remember. Oh well, maybe it'll come back to me.

Edit It seems my picture isn't showing up after all. Technology is so frustrating!
