I am thinking forward to Sunday and I was not so subtley reminded of how dense i can be and how Father's Day has changed for many that are close by and many more that are far away. This Father's Day could represent loss, with no one physically here to bestow a gift, a card, a kind word , or a hug to, it could be a day of sorrow or a day of regret.
Being as I have my Daddy still on this earth but, have gotten a glimpse of the painful loss...and I do not wish to be in that place that one day we all will endure. This thought came to me as a Father's Day wish for you. What if you look at yourself, at your life and see...see him there. Is he in your eyes, your smile, you laugh? Did he plant the seed for your love for the game? Is he the catalyst for your motivation, is he your hero? Is he the one you get your steadiness, your protective nature, your selfless sacrificing, your endless provision and your ability to unconditionally love those around you from?
So I ask you, would he rather you be sad in his passing or on Father's Day rejoice in the gifts he has given you. He knew he was loved, he knew what he was to you...now be that for those who love you. This Father's Day celebrate the life lived...it was extraordinary!
