Six Months

It's hard to believe that we have been without Dad for six months already. Though I miss him every day and memories often put a lump in my throat, they still, more often than not, bring a smile to my face.

Life continues on and people and places change around us. It is the way of the world. We are here "but for a moment" and then pass on. I pray that I will learn the lessons God has for me along the way. I'm trying.

  1. That is a sweet picture.

    I find it hard to believe it has been 6 mo. I would have said a couple of months.

    You said, "I pray that I will learn the lessons God has for me along the way. I'm trying."

    Your posts attest to that and I am sure you are learning. At my age I am still learning too.

    I wonder about those men in Genesis who lived hundreds of years. That is a long time to learn, but I am sure they had not reached perfection yet. Although I wondered how close Enoch came since the Lord took him.

  3. It's hard to believe it's already been 6 months, but in some ways it seems like forever. I would love to feel another one of his tight hugs. I can still hear his encouraging words ringing in my ears though, so that's a good thing. :)
