Today it's been three months since Dad died. It seems like we will forever mark our years with the date and time of his death.Every occasion will be timed up against that day. People say it gets easier. I don't know. It is like loosing your legs-loosing someone who was so crucial and important in your life. Anything was possible, going through the worst things or the best things, if He was here. We learn to adapt. And we go on. Kindness from people who knew and cared about him go on. We appreciate every ounce of it all. Still it is hard to see his things. The last things he touched. With his hands.... To still smell the smell of him on things that he wore. It seems so long until we will meet again. It helps to remember him. To talk about him. To love him still. To be inspired by the things he could do. To think about the words he said and meant. I cry everyday. I miss him so much.
