So, it’s Father’s Day tomorrow. For most, it’s a day to spend bonding with their Dad, usually over a pint or ten, maybe watching the footy or going fishing.
I’m being flooded with emails from catalogues, Halfords, Argos, etc. with special offers on Father’s Day gifts. How nice!
Father’s Day will always be something different to me now. I’m not sad, but at least my sister & I now have somewhere we can go to remember the good days we had with Dad.
So I’ll be working tomorrow til half past five, then taking a trip to Capstone Park on my way home to sit on his bench, and remember our childhood Sunday morning walks.
Hold your Dad close to you, and remember he won’t be around forever. Tell him you love him (even if it feels awkward guys!) If you’re not speaking, then now is the time to make amends (don’t wait til tomorrow), regardless of who said or did what.
Life is too short. So spend it wisely.
Peace!
