I Wish I May, I Wish I Might

Today is my father's birthday. It was 15 years ago in August that he died. I was 30 years old and just beginning to forge a relationship with him. I wish he were here so I could say 'Happy Birthday, Dad' ...... I wish he were here so I could really get to know him.

I wish, I wish. But I didn't see the first star tonight.

Happy Birthday, Dad.

Thoughts from others

Think of a happy memory of your Dad and smile... he'll see your smile and feel your love. *hug*

((hugs)) I lost my daddy in the month of August too. About the same many years as you lost yours. It's hard to accept still today... we were close. I was such a tomboy, his little punkin', his Candy girl... I miss him.

We never forget, we move on and remember the happy times. Sometimes I can feel daddy so close to me... like when the leaves on the trees are making that rustling sound, or that whisper of air on the back of my neck... or when it rains (like today), it's like the raindrops are a sign that daddy is near and it makes my heart smile.

"Yesterday is already a dream and tomorrow is only a vision. But today, well lived, makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope." -Sanskrit

Makes me want to call my own dad and chat. Thanks.

Your dad is proud and smiling from the Heaven's above, my friend. :)

I ditto what D said. ;)
