I'd like to talk to you good people
13 years ago
life is good... ain't it so?
Well My grandpa passed away today. He was a stern man, died fairly old like 90 I think. And I feel a bit uneasy, not because he was close to me. The opposite I've seen the man about 3 times in my life. So i am not that badly affected by the news. The thing is my Dad, Hes been out of the country for 8 years now and doesn't see to plan to come back any soon, But now with the bad news He asks of me if I'd like to go to the burial. He is in his own way thinking on coming back for that. If he was here with me n family we'd be in our way already,but again I know its family but only in the name. they are strangers and very distant to me and my family.
And I know that if I refuse I'll end up being the black sheep ugh

With these things, your not going for the dead, they're dead and gone now. You go for the living. So if there isn't anyone there your going to support , I'd say its really up to you. I know the feeling though, I had very similar circumstances come up this last year. I ended up not going ,but I was already a black sheep for being gay so the decision wasnt' that hard lol.
I also know how that is. I missed my grandmother's funeral earlier this year. I didn't want to go because I was not close to her, and I am not close with any of my relatives on that side of the family. I am sure they would have been nice and welcomed me with open arms and all of that, but they are strangers to me, and it was just going to be too awkward. My younger brother did go, as well as a few closer family members, and I think that might have made me look like the black sheep, but honestly I feel better not having to put myself in that awkward situation.
