So this morning I woke up in a funk, at first I couldn’t put my finger on why I was feeling like this until it hit me, 9 years ago today my dad passed away. Even to this day I still find it hard to believe that he is no longer with us. For me I could remember the call I got from my sister like it was yesterday. That was rough and very hard to deal with while I was driving. Today believe it or not I feel that I am having a harder time dealing with his death more than I did 2-4 years after he passed. I think the reason is because for a long time in my mind I played it off that was away traveling for business, but within the past year or so I have come to the realization that I will never have the chance to tell him that I love him and to thank him for all that he did for me while growing up. I will never have the opportunity to get advice from my dad ever again. I just wish I had the chance talk to him one more time…I’m so sad right now, I think I will go visit his grave site now.
Here is a pic of my mom and dad about a year before he passed, this is one of my favorite pictures of them together.
