Last night I had attended my first event since dad's passing.. it was our company's team building in Lake Arrowhead. I was nervous for this night.. I anticipated a lot of people (most of whom I haven't since for 18 months since the pandemic) to come up to me to offer their condolences. I wasn't sure if I was ready to be surrounded with that many people and having to answer questions like, "Are you okay?" I didn't want to cry any more..
That evening, dad was my date. He gave me the strength and courage to be at peace that evening. Every hug, words of support I received from that evening gave me comfort. I did not cry.. I was able to celebrate and talk about him with so much love.
It was a magical evening of love, care and support. Thank you dad.
