Hanna have made a collage about her father when it was Fathers Day and after seeing that I started to think about people that is, or has been enormously important to me. After my parents there are two persons who was the world for me when I was a child, my mormor and morfar, grandmother and grandfather. For me they symbolized security, human warmth and happiness. From that I was seven or eight months until I was about ten years old I always was daily with them or at least with my grandmother. My grandfather often spend his time in there cottage during the week. Spending all that time with her made me partly to the person I am today. She always maintained self-control regardless to what was happening and I never heard her raise her voice and I don’t think that I know anyone who is so considerated that she was.
They are now both dead, my grandfather died 1989 after being sick in cancer and my grandmother died last year after she had had Alzheimer for about 14 years.
But there is not one day that I don’t think about them. I really loved them and I wish that they had seen me grow up and finish school and start working and all other things.
So after seeing Hannas collage and being inspired I made my own collage about my childhood heroes,


What a sweet tribute
