This is for my grandpa.
The most hardworking man I’ve ever known.
Also the most stubborn.
He was so stubborn that he kept on farming deep into his eighties. He barely had eyesight left but still got onto his John Deer,
every day.
He had a dream.
His dream became our sanctuary.
The farm was our favorite place in the world.
When I heard he passed away,
I was relieved.
Like I said, he was a stubborn man.
Then sorrow came.
It took one struck of a minor chord.
Grief is almost like a time machine.
The memories were so real I could smell the trees and hear the crackling of leaves under my feet.
Time travel.
What I would give to have another "stoep sit en rooibos".
