A note to daddy
Sep 15th, 2007 by Angele
It’s amazing how time flies. This morning I was lazing in bed and suddenly this thought struck me. In a few months it’ll be exactly 5 years since he left for good. A lot of things happened all through these years. Some good, some bad. Somehow for the best, somehow for the worst.
I have come to accept that he will never come home again. But my sorrow doesn’t leave even for a single day. In everything I do, he’s with me. Like a love in disguise, I can feel his hug in the wind. I see his smile in the sunrise and I hear his voice beyond the clouds. But at times I long for his fatherly touch. My heart aches whenever I see a little girl and her daddy. It reminds me so much of what we used to be.
Can we get over someone’s death? And not just someone, but a person very dear to one’s heart, so close to the heart that you could see your own reflection in his eyes. It is said that time heals all wounds. Does time also heal the pain of losing somebody you loved so much? My grief is always there. The heartache remains. I think we don’t really get over. We simply learn to accept and live with it. As human beings, we adapt to the situation and we survive.
Losing a father is like losing that one wing when needing to fly. Often life seems unbearable without you, but knowing you want me to go on with my life gives me the strength to do so. I miss you more than words could ever say. I wanted you to see me in my wedding dress and walk me down the aisle. I wanted you to meet your grandchildren too. But I know that whatever I do you will be there because you are not only my daddy. You are now my guiding star and my angel.
The life you had shared with your dad is something to celebrate, to remember, to be thankful for.
Don’t hide the hope & joy you may eventually feel that your beloved dad now is in a place of eternal joy.
Your dad still lives in you, my dear. Now & forever.
*HUGS*
This drove me to tears, honestly. It’s not easy to get over someone’s death and more so to talk about someone close who is not here and express what you feel for that person. I’ve lost a sister and it pains me everyday that I think how it would have been if she was still here.
And you’re making him proud to have such a wonderful daughter! 
But as you’ve said, your daddy is now your guiding star and your angel!
even though your dad is no longer with you physically, but he will always remain in your heart, and his presence will always be there, forever.
*hugs*
i miss my dad too..
Happy Birthday, my dear!
May all your birthday wishes come true.
HUGS! MUAKS!
It is not easy to let go of someone dear completely and I do comprehend of losing an important person. I’ve lost my grandpa and the pain was unbearable. But do know that your father misses you too. He will be looking down at you from the skies above.
HUGS!
Happy Birthday!
