There's so much to be thankful for...

It is hard sometimes with all that life has handed me this year to remember this... but it is TRUE there is so much to be thankful for... and that includes having such a huge role model in my life who by being his daughter made me want to be a better person... I LOVE THE LYRICS to this song below

"Somedays, we forget to look around us,
Somedays, we can't see the joy that surrounds us,
so caught up inside ourselves, we take when we should give,
so for tonight we pray for, what we know can be,
and on this day we hope for, what we still can't see,
It's up to us, to be the change,
and even though we all can still do more, there's so much to be Thankful for,
look beyond ourselves, there's so much sorrow,
it's way to late to say, I'll cry tomorrow each of us must find our truth,
it's so long overdue, so for tonight we pray for, what we know can be,
and everyday, we hope for, what we still can't see,
it's up to us, to be the change, and even though we all can still do more,
there's so much to be thankful for, even with our differences,
there is a place were all connected, each of us can find each others light,
So for tonight, we pray for what we know can be,
and on this day, we hope for, what we still can't see,
it's up to us, to be the change,
and even though this world can still do so much more
there's so much to be thankful for. "

I am thankful and honored to be your daughter, I only hope I can live up to the legacy you left behind! THANK YOU, DADDY! :)

A little heart ache...

Dad -

I just wanted to let you know the void that is felt with you not around. The holidays have been good, but without you there it always feels like something is missing.

I often find myself wondering what you are doing, if you've been around, how you are feeling. I wish for one brief moment I could get a glimpse of where you are!

I love you so much!!!
