My aunt Beverly.  How that woman was great at putting the fear of God into you. The funny thing is that she could do it with the point of her crooked finger and no words.  And because there were no words just that look (everyone knows that look) everyone in the room would duck, turn or move Trying not to be the target of that finger. The high pitch of her voice when she said your name you would  already know you were in trouble. Most of us were more afraid of aunt Beverly then we were our own parents.. She didn't take any crap. But as much as her wrath was feared she was loved and as much as she put the fear in you you knew without a doubt  you  were loved. That was a big love, unwavering an all-knowing love. If you were her family or her friend She would protect you like no other. When you needed it she would guide you and make you feel safe. You knew She would give it to you straight every time. For me she was A symbol of strength.. She never felt sorry for herself even at the end.. and during the parts of her life where most would give up she just grew stronger. She loved life!! From the time I was little girl walking to her house from elementary if I had a bad day or something she would tell me Not to dwell on the bad things but to be happy with what I had and if I needed her to she would go whoop someone's ass…. She taught me to see the glass half full not half empty. I ask her how she was always so strong and she said that when she was a little girl she told herself she had no other choice. That her mama was strong therefore she would be strong and that I came from a long line of strong women! So I honestly never worried about her. Even when she was diagnosed with heart disease or breast cancer I knew she was too strong and too mean to give in. She made us all strong. Hell what did we have to fear she would take care of whatever for us if she could. She always had our backs. Now that she is free of this world and all the BS we now have to live life knowing she instilled that same strength with in each of us. It will be our jobs to point the crooked fingers and to have each other's backs! Another part of our family has been reunited with our Family in heaven and what a reunion that must have been. So with words from Aunt B.. cry and be sad for now but then get your asses up and enjoy life!
