Every once in a while, especially on a day like Father’s Day, I feel the yearning to see my dad again. Last night, I stopped by the cemetery to say hello. I found myself in tears asking him to be there with me. I let the tears flow and then asked him help me feel peace in my heart. As I finished my prayer, I I looked up and saw the most beautiful pink flowers. I took in the beauty and smiled. “Ask and you shall receive.”
I brought my focus to the flowers, trees, blue sky and the presence of my father. I felt so grateful to feel the love and connection to everything around me. I could not have asked for a greater gift. Thank you, Dad.
Happy Father’s Day. I love you with all my heart and know you are here. Thank you for showing me that we are always surrounded by love and beauty. Most importantly, that it is all within our own hearts. We are never alone.
