Letter to My Father From My Son

​Happy Anniversary Dad
Today I may have been happy, but instead I feel sad
May have been Happy that I was able to present to you, your story on this the 5th Anniversary of your passing.....

​But I've been so busy dad....
Busy Trying to keep your descendants alive
Keep My Sanity
Reach out to Humanity
Find my voice
Trying to dim the mournful sound of Doves' Cry

Dad I feel so petrified, paralyzed by something that resembles fear...still not clear....may be some sadness and anguish mixed in there.
Just can't fight the sensation of feeling perilously perched on the precipice of deep despair for Our World.

And so on this your Anniversary
My heart is not glad only sad
About all that's been going on since you've been gone.

But..... I asked one of your grandchildren to give voice to what he's been feeling while I continue to seek  healing. 
And he stepped up so well... He made me proud.... and all the mothers out there and fathers too.... and  so will you.

Love, Your Daughter

P.S. Your grandson has big Dreams Dad.
He Believes He Can Fly
Our Hope is that his and many other of his Generation will Live out their Dreams
