Life's That Way
I arrived home for the holidays this morning and it was heartbreaking to see my mom cry. She told me how much she still misses my dad. Surprisingly, I managed not to cry which was a real feat as I cried like a baby yesterday when I watched 'Little Lord Fauntleroy' (with Alec Guiness and Ricky Schroeder) on the telly last night. My dad loved that movie and so do I. He had a real soft heart and always cried, not just when he watched this movie but in general when a movie was deeply moving him.
I've always been very close to my dad, we were similiar in a lot of ways. We could fight but make up after a while just because we couldn't hold any grudges. He always helped other people and would have given the shirt off his back to help someone in need. He couldn't say no to anyone and I'm a lot like that too.
Life without my dad is still so weird. I sometimes think that it's all just a big mistake or a bad dream and he'll walk around the corner whistling as he used to to let me and my mom know that he'd come back from wherever it was he'd gone to.
I miss you, dad, and I hope that when my time comes I'll see you again over there on the other side.
Peace out!
