Going home….
….tomorrow after a fine visit with my Father, a man whom I’ve admired my entire life. It delights me to engage in endless conversations on limitless topics spanning from morning til evening. We agree, we debate, we laugh and I snap a photo. And he said to me, quite out of the blue – Robert Kenui Pope was a good man, and you are fortunate to have had such a great relationship.’ ‘Yes,’ I reply, ‘he was one of a kind, and we were both blessed to have had eleven wonderful years together. Some people never get to experience that at all.’ ‘I know’ he replied, ‘I know.’
And myDarlin’ spoke of his Father, a man he admired for his entire life. He would hold the ring made of gold with the jade stone, telling me stories of his Dad showing him what a loving relationship looked like. Even though his Father passed on early, he expressed that he was blessed to have had such a wonderful man for a Father.
Tonight I am grateful that as I think about myDarlin’, I know he is always by my side and in my heart as I travel on the highways of life. Love, love, love is playing on iTunes… Nothing you can do that can’t be done… it’s easy – all you need is love.
