Just stopped by to check in on you and see how you're doing. Although the pain and grief of your loss will always be with you, what makes it possible to bear is it's slow replacement, in large part, by focusing on the good memories, the happy times you spent with your Dad, thinking about the life lessons he taught you ... the tempering of sadness with the warm glow of love that remains despite his absence -- the comfort of everything that he means to you, which continues. Get out those old family pictures, and share those funny family stories, whenever you feel the pang of grief. Let the happy memories and grateful thoughts replace and overwhelm those pangs, and in doing so, over time, those happier thoughts will be what predominate. SO sorry for your loss, but SO happy you shared so much good time on this earth with your Dad.
