I hear deep, genuine authenticity, which i appreciate so much. <br /><br />I think actually feeling all these feelings and sharing them is not indulgent, but courageous, and i think it honors your dad to speak your truth about your feelings.<br /><br />It is sad that sometimes we go a long time before we're ready to share something important with someone we're close to. Maybe it takes us a long time to even know, or to admit to ourselves, or to feel strong enough to risk their reaction, or maybe to just plain be ready. And sometimes when we do feel ready they're not there to hear. Occasionally i have an internal conversation with my mom and you are making me think i could stand to do more of that. <br /><br />Hugs,<br /><br />MarnMarniferoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12632198010145865458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2899086331107445618.post-43159457102831818082010-06-21T14:12:18.468-04:002010-06-21T14:12:18.468-04:00Chin up kid !

It is " ok " to feel this way ! <br /><br />The world is a narrow bridge and the main thing is to have no fear,<br />( probably ) no regrets either. <br /><br />We are mere puppets in God's hand !Ruchi Bhatiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07988552686599150277noreply@blogger.com
