A Father's death

It sounds like he will have a good journey.  I'm sure there will be lots of beautiful music.

He Spoke To Me Tonight

I read your last 7 or 8 entries, about your dad. Deeply moving stuff. Thank you so much for the catharsis, and the inspiration.

I saw a moonbow shortly after Daddy's death, and I knew it was him trying to assure me that everything was going to be okay and that he was still with me.

In Hawaii, we are told never to answer when a ghost calls your name.  The legend says that you will die if you do so, for that ghost wants your soul.

And you're right, I was slapped hard when the news came that Daddy was gone.  It was the last thing in the world I was expecting.

Sometimes when I look up at the night sky I think the brightest star
is my dad watching over me.

Those five words are perfect

I'm glad that your father speaks to you.  I posted the other day about an experience I had (a male voice saying my name and nothing more as I came out of the restroom at work) that made me wonder if it was my dad. He's been dead for 14 years and I've never felt anything I thought was his presence before.  I still don't know...Anyway, I read your last post.  Having been through months of my father slowly dying in a nursing home (at age 46) and actually years of him being sick, I still believe that a sudden death is harder.  His illness took a toll on me that I've probably never dealt with, but I have lost two good friends suddenly, and I do think it is worse.  No chance to say goodbye, you're just blind-sided.  At least when someone is ill, you can prepare somewhat, even as hard as it is.  Sorry to ramble on!  I am glad that at least you can still feel him with you.
