Personal Narrative: Her Last Tears

Improved Essays
I remember being a little child with these big goals and dreams in life. My mother told me I could be anything I wanted. All I had to do was dream it and believe it. Being a young child, I thought achieving goals were easy yet I was told otherwise. However, with a thorough plan and dedication I can meet these goals.

I want to title the book “Her Last Tears” because I want the book to symbolize how I am done crying. I want the book to be about the things I overcame in my past. I wanted to be done crying. I think this book is helpful to my future because once I am done with the last chapter I am closing my past. This will help me start new beginnings and give me a fresh start in life. It might be hard trying to publish this book because this would be a touchy topic to write about. I fear that this book would take a long time and I would spend most of my day writing or thinking about the book.

    Narrative Essay On Grief

    • 2 Pages

    Grief has been both my downfall and my saving grace. No one knows how to grieve properly or correctly, but the one thing I learned from grieving at a very young age, is that grief is love; specifically, unconditional love. This unconditional love towards someone (or in my case, many people) pours out as a sign of loneliness and yearning just to hold them and hug them one final time. I understand that losing people is a part of life and can’t be avoided, but growing up, I thought my world had turned upside down when I lost the two most important people to me. Three weeks prior to my tenth birthday, my Nana passed away from Alzheimer’s Disease.…
