My mother passed away almost 12 years ago, so my Dad is all I have. He lives out of state so we don't see each other much but communicate a lot by email and phone.

He sent me the sweetest card today. It so fits my life right now and I'm sure all of you out there so I want to share it. It certainly brought tears to my eyes, so get your tissue out.


It's going to be okay...Hang In There

It's going to be okay.
Just give things a little time.
And in the meantime...
keep believing in yourself;
take the best of care;
try to put things in perspective;
remember what's most important;
don't forget that somone cares;
search for the positive side;
learn the lessons to be learned;
and find your way through to
the inner qualities...
the strength, the smiles,
the wisdom, and the
optimistic outlook
that are such special parts of you.
It's going to be okay.
It know it will be.
Because I know you.
