Goodbye Dad

The southwest was one of my dad's favorite spots on the planet.

 

 

My dad passed away in his sleep tonight.  His battle with the cruel disease called Lou Gehrig's Disease finally ended and in his case I know he's in a better place.  He's finally free from the cruelty that this disease puts its victims (and they're loved ones) through. 

 

 

I hope you're at peace dad.  We'll always love you and I'll personally miss you terribly.  You were always there for me and I hope that I was there for you when you needed me the most as well.  God bless you. 

 

 

I love you Dad.

 

 

First Year for A Serene Life For Me

Today is bitter sweet for me.  It's been one year since I started this blog purely out of curiousity to see if it was something I would like.  I enjoyed it and found a spot that would reflect who I am or would like to be if the world would just cooperate.... At any rate, a calm, serene place where I could escape to relax and touch base with the inner me.  As it turned out this year was one that dramatically change the face of my life in so many ways both good and bad.

There have been so many changes that I wouldn't know where to start so I won't.  Instead I'll just say that it's been an interesting year that's taught me a lot. 

Today is also Father's Day and since it may be the last one I have with my father I'm planning on spending as much time with him as possible for the next while. 

To continue - that is the question.  I'll leave that up to you.

Happy Fathers' Day

For all the fathers out there ... Happy Fathers’ Day
