Remembering Dad

It is five years today. Sometimes it feels as if it was very recently, other times it feels like it was a former life. But mostly it still fells incredible that he is gone. He left a big hole in our lives and although we carry on, things are different, and haven't been easy. Mostly life is too busy to stop and think, so at least anniversaries provide an opportunity to reflect. The tricky part is reflecting with a smile remembering the good times. It is much easier to wallow and get upset. I don't suppose he would be very impressed by that. So, chin up, and look to the future, but remember the best bits of the past.
