The Daughter Who Will Always Hurt…..

Yesterday I posted about the anniversary of my Dad’s death and as normal you have all been wonderful with your words of comfort. When I was writing a reply to Mary, I said
“Oh Mary,……..but in achieving all that, I sacrificed time with the man who will always be my inspiration. …..Oh Mary why do we have to have hindsight afterwards!!!!”
Afterwards I was thinking about life in general and knowing that life would have been so much better if
I had foresight to see what was going to happen!
I had the ability to see my hindsight at the time of the initial events!
With foresight I would have spent more time with Dad, with hindsight at the time (!) I would have appreciated his influence on my life and told him before it was too late.
If we can learn one thing it is that we can have foresight and hindsight now…..by treasuring those close to us and knowing that nothing is more important that valuing those around us and making time for those we love. The more we allow love in, the more we value love in our lives then I believe the more we will feel part of a loving world and be able to cope with our grief.
