They rode on, with Grandpa marking his map. Justin remained quiet, wondering what could make a man like Grandpa cry.

As if knowing Justin’s thoughts, Grandpa said, “I remember crying when you were born.”

“Why? Didn’t you want me?”

“Oh, yes. You were the most beautiful baby. But, you see, your grandma, Beth, had just died. When I held you I was flooded with joy. Then I thought, Grandma will never see this beautiful boy. I cried.”

The horses wading through the grass made the only sound in the silence. Then Grandpa said, “There’s an old saying, son. ‘The brave hide their fears, but share their tears.’ Tears bathe the soul.”

Justin looked at his grandpa. Their eyes caught. A warmth spread over Justin and he lowered his eyes. He wished he could tell his grandpa all he felt, how much he loved him.
