I caught the tail (tale?) end of Dr. Phil. There were these daughters and they weren't speaking to their father because he decided to divorce his wife of 30 years and then he re-married. Dr. Phil was like, "Don't you want to try to reconcile with your father before it's too late and you can't?" They were like, "No, not really."
WHAT THE HELL?! I mean, I guess I can understand this..but..from my standpoint..it hurts a lot. You really don't know what you have until it's gone. Even if your parent, or anyone for that matter, is not your favorite person, when they're gone..they're gone. From my experience you'd give ANYTHING to just be able to spend one more minute with them. I always heard people say that before, and I was always just like, "Eh, I have plenty of time.." I just figured that if things ever happened, it'd be a long time away..and by then everything would be perfect and all that...I never put that much thought into it. And then, my dad...passesd. Things between us weren't HORRIBLE, but I wish they would have been better. I wish I would have made total peace with him....I love him so much and I never really told him. You know? Shit. It's hard to explain..but..just...trust me on this guys, tell everyone in your life how much they mean to you. Just like that Garth Brooks song goes,

"If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes

'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel.."

Ah. It sucks.
