Dad

to my Dad in Heaven.

12
Dad

Its been 126 days without you, that’s 4 months and 6 days. There is many nights I’ve spent crying wondering why? Why’d you leave so soon?

Your not gonna see me graduate, your not gonna walk me down the aisle, we won’t have a father daughter dance.

You left 5 daughters behind, 5 daughters who continue to hurt, thinking about all our childhood memories with you. Taking us out on Halloween, taking us to walk around the city, in Mornings you would walk my sisters to school and I would wait for you to walk me to pre school.


Your oldest daughter is graduated, owns her own car, has two beautiful daughters,

2nd oldest daughter also has two beautiful daughter of her own, she has her own vehicle and is a full time mother.

3rd oldest daughter is currently a teachers assistant, working on getting her drivers license, and also has two beautiful daughter of her own as well.

And last, the youngest, the baby (Me) she’s still in high school with one more year left, she overcame all her addictions, she has no kids, so she spends most of her time helping her sisters.


Being the baby out of your dads children, it hurts. Cause I carry on the memory of being the most spoiled from him, it hurts to think I won’t hear him call me his baby, or his little chiclet, or call me and my sisters his little ducklings.


I never knew it would be so soon you would leave us, I’m 18 years old, I needed you to guide me, teach me, love and comfort me. Not only me but my sisters too.


I promise dad the day will come where I know you’ll be proud of me,

January 28th 2019.


Love your daughter, your youngest, your baby.

Missing you everyday.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
