I remember a specific moment
â
I remember a specific moment,
watching my grandmother,
hang the clothes on the line,
and her saying to me,
you are going to have to learn to do this,
and me being in that space of awareness and knowing,
that my life would not be the same,
as my grandmother's life.
â
Meaning
