Keeper of cards

One day a girl went over to her grandma's house, she noticed that her grandma has kept all the cards anyone has ever sent her...

So, she asked why she kept them all

This was her answer

"I keep these cards because to me they aren't 'just cards'... to me they are people's hearts and souls. When you read a card... You can feel the emotion's that person who was writing them felt..." 

"I keep cards because I want to make sure they are never forgotten"

Then the girl's grandma stared to get tears in her eyes...

The girl's grandma slowly got up from where she was sitting and walked over to a pile of cards. She picked them up and sat back down and gave them to the girl. The girl looked at the cards said and who they were from...

Those cards were from her parents...

In the card it described what she looked like, if she was a girl or a boy. She looked at the date and it was the day she was born.

The girl was really confused and her grandma could tell.

Her grandma said "Some of my happiest moments were because of those cards"

The girl got up and gave her grandma a hug and also started to cry. "That is why I keep all of the cards..."

    Hidden in the shadows 

    Not sure where to go

    I get lost at every turn I take

    I look for the people I know but their faces are all blurry, I can't recognize anyone...
