Daddy I love you

This is not my favorite time of the year.

Christmas.

Always glad to see it get here.Always glad to see it go.

Daddy went to the hospital for the last time Christmas morning 1991.He had cancer and was...

December 27th was his 66th birthday and we spent it in the hospital with him.Staying night and day.Came New Years and we where still there.

Daddy was coming home.

With help from hospice we kept him home.Momma took care of the day time and I stayed up nights with Daddy.

Thursday January 9th one day after Momma's birthday early that night just me and him.I asked him if he was tired because he had been talking out of his head some.He had been working in the mill.Are you tired Daddy I asked?He just nodded his head yes.Daddy do what you need to do and don't worry about us.Again he nodded his head.I'm sorry he said.Daddy's last words to me.I told him he had nothing to be sorry about.I kissed his forehead and told him I love you.Again he just nodded his head.

After that he went into what I call a coma.About 10 am on January 9,1992 Daddy died.Daddy I miss you.Never thought I could make it without you but everything is okay.

I love you Daddy.

More understanding

It is almost funny .People including myself are quick to tell you what you did wrong.What you did bad.So on and so on.But ,I am guilty of this,never telling you what you do right.Why do we find it so easy to criticize but to praise your good qualities is near to impossible.Sometimes maybe this is so true we humans got a lot of things wrong and backwards.Maybe there is still time to grow and improve.That is what I want to do.Improve,grow and learn to be a better person.More understanding.I want to look at you and see the good things about you.Not look at you and see all your faults.

The Marmalade Reflections of my life lyrics

Listen to the words.This is such a sad song.I wonder what the person who wrote this song was going through at the time?Hope whoever it was things got better for them.

This is for all the lonely people

Like that song by America this is for all the lonely people.Some us will always be lonely I think.In a crowd of thousands we are and can be alone.Why we are like this I don't know.Maybe it's because we don't try hard enough.Maybe it is for some purpose that will be revealed at some unknown time.Maybe then we will understand why this happened to us.Maybe it is of our own choosing.Maybe it is our fears holding us back.Maybe there is a cure for this.A pill from the corner drugstore.That would be wonderful huh.But I am sure the answer and the cure lays inside us.
