My christmas holiday, and how its altered my life.

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - My christmas holiday, and how its altered my life.

Posted: 1/2/2007 11:22:14 PM EDT

Up late again. Sleep will come back eventually. Been trying to put it all together, since Christmas eve, when my dad passed away. He had a three year battle with cancer and it finally took him. I went through probably every emotion possible, and realized through it all that my siblings are truly worthless. No one could help out in ANY of the necessary preparations for dealing with this event during, nor after.I guess thats my lot in life being the oldest. Though I can thank the LORD, that I did get to spend some quality time with my dad, and I'll cherish it forever. I've been living in Florida now for over 6 years and I admit, I didnt call home every week, more likely once every couple of months. So keeping in touch wasnt something I did well. But I did visit when I could.I just know he's in a better place now, and he even told me, its up to me to keep everyone in line(my family). I got to tell him I love him, and he will be missed, and he said"As long as I'm in your heart, I'll never be too far away" hard,
Well, I guess what I'm trying to say is, Thank You Arfcom, for the little bit of sanity(insanity?)that you bring into my life. I've never actually met any of you, but I consider you all family. Thank you for your well wishes and prayers in my family's time of need, and please grab hold of who you love and TELL THEM, because life is just a fleeting moment, and those that you love need to know it, every day.God Bless and well wishes to you and yours.
