Today marks the day one year ago that I last saw my dad alive. He was helping me choose a water bottle out of his extensive collection for my sister in law for her birthday. I remember standing at the front door ready to leave his house and oh how I wished I would have hugged and kissed him and told him how much I love him. I know he knows I love him.
I heard this talk (above) by Henry B. Eyring on the way to the hospital as I was going to say my final good bye to my dad. I will never forget this talk as I felt he was talking just to me. Saying the exact words I was feeling at the time. I will never forget that car ride. I can see it so clearly in my mind today. To me this is a reminder that there is a God and He is mindful of me.
I write today instead of the day he passed because this is how I remember my dad. A man who was healthy and strong, full of life.

I don't know if both of you are notified when someone posts or not. So I'm posting the same comment that I did on Corrine's :
ReplyDeleteI love to read the posts you and your sister write. Always so impressed with the ability you and your sister have to express your feelings.
