| LOSING MY FATHER WAS THE MOST DRAMATIC THING I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED. HE WAS VERY SICK AND I KNEW THAT IT WAS COMING FASTER THAN I WANTED TO BELIEVE. BUT NOTHING EVER COULD HAVE PREPARED ME FOR THOSE LAST MOMENTS WITH HIM. IT WAS LIKE SEEING MY OWN LIFE FLASH BEFORE MY EYES.IT SEEMED LIKE JUST A BAD DREAM BUT THE REALITY OF IT WAS I WAS LOSING MY FATHER, MY FRIEND, MY HERO, AND THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO TO STOP IT. I CONSIDERED MY FATHER AND I VERY CLOSE AT HEART. HE IS THE ONE WHO WAS ALWAYS THERE TO PICK ME UP WHEN I WAS DOWN, AND TELL ME TO TRY AGAIN. HE WAS VERY KINDHEARTED AND THOUGHT OF OTHERS BEFORE HIMSELF. I RESPECTED THAT SO MUCH. I MISS MY DAD DEARLY AND LONG TO SEE HIM AGAIN, BUT I FIND PEACE IN KNOWING THAT ALL OF HIS PAIN AND SUFFERING HAS CEASED AND HE IS FREE TO LIVE AGAIN WITH CHRIST. I STILL FEEL HIS SPIRIT ALL AROUND ME. I KNOW THAT HE IS STILL THERE TO GUIDE ME THROUGH MY WALK IN LIFE. ONE DAY I WILL SEE HIM AGAIN, HE WILL BE WAITING FOR ME AT HEAVENS GATE. |
