Yesterday would've been my dad's 60th birthday. Hard to believe he isn't here to celebrate it still, since he never seemed his age anyway. Hard to believe that he could be gone in the blink of an eye, and out of my life forever, physically speaking. Still hard to believe how much has changed since he's gone. How many stupid mistakes have been made by people who love each other, and one who just can't forgive. It amazes me I guess, that my dad was so big on forgiveness, and those who say they love him and want to follow his example really can't learn his biggest lesson, to forgive and forget. Still amazes me too, that someone who is supposed to be my best friend and be the one person to forgive me when I make a mistake and vice versa, is the one person who can't bring herself to forgive. And it still hurts like hell.
But anyway, I'm getting onto another topic. Happy Birthday Daddy. I know you're probably having a good old time up there with Pop-Pop and Nana, Uncle George and Aunt Betty. I hope you are smiling that great big smile of yours every moment - painfree and stressfree, and carefree. And most importantly, free of the cancer that took you there.
