When my paternal grandfather passed away, when I was five. I remember asking my father why he was sad. He told me his father had gone to heaven. 😞

@bijouxbroussard was that confusing?

@Elevatorpitches Yes and no. I didn’t understand why that meant I’d never see him again.

@bijouxbroussard so if heaven is a sad place...why is it heaven?

That would confuse me
