Give Yourself Time_Healing has a lot of ups and downs.

Healing is a gradual process
filled with ups & downs.
There is no timetable for healing.“

My Dad died several years ago. I was sad, but not overwhelmed with sadness because I watched him for so long dying of cancer. He was not able to do the things he loved to do, and I have to say he loved life. He enjoyed everything. He was always laughing and smiling. He never complained. When he was close to dying, he was ready to go. We had many talks about what a great life it has been and how our family had so many wonderful memories. We were very lucky indeed.

The healing process is a funny thing. For me, the third year seemed to be the hardest. Hard to believe that someone who was a big part of my life for so long is gone. There will always be ups and downs. I am working it through by trying to concentrate on the good times. Can’t help but be reminded of the Dr. Seuss saying: “Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.”  I was certainly blessed to have a Dad who taught me to love life and to keep smiling.

Thanks Dad! ♥
