I think she was expressing her own art as well. Because I only realized much later that my grandmother was an artist. She used to sing songs as she would be cleaning the house. And there's this thing, there's I would just sing one of the songs that she would sing the way she would do it. She would go like.

So I can still hear that sound as she's cleaning around the house. And then she would tell me, no, it's a Costina lei. That's how Costina sounds. I used to play Costina. And then me, you're doing it. I'm like, oh, she was a good sketch. You know, she was that person. And Elalini, they would say, so someone who's just

Like that. Automatically, as in provision. Because she would just. There's a song that she used to sing. And it's in my mind because I was talking about it in June when we had something at home. It's a ity. Ding and di tanda. There's a song she was. So in between, she would play the costina. She sings in the gym.

So it means I would get married if I want to. You know, so after hearing her story, I then realized what she meant. I only realized in June what she meant by that because she lost her husband when she was only 28 and she decided that she was not going to get married again. She's going to raise her kids as the Masonas and build a Masona home. So, I mean, I was raised by that person.

I think I'm forced to remember everything she taught me because I've become everything she said I would become. Yes. What would she say? She always told me that there's a light upon my life. Oh, lovely. And there's a light upon my life. No one would ever ignore me. And things like that. You know, those conversations.
