Papi!

I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!

And I know you love me!

The amount of love, support, giving, teaching, listening, understanding,

You have given me, is what, every daughter and son dreams of.

You have taught me what is unconditional love,

You have taught me to see every person as an equal special individual.

You have taught me to give,

To be true to myself and to everyone.

You believed in me, challenged me,

always backed me, even if you didn’t agree,

always with me!

We had such fun times together,

You were always there,

Always filling our love and friendship with so many quality moments together!

Daddy you are a true, dear, rare jewel to me, and to the whole world.

You have given so much,

and left such a strong imprint in each and every one of us.

You have been taken too early, and it is an enormous loss to us all, and to the universe.

This last month together gave me an opportunity to give back,

Maybe only a small fraction of what you have given me.

And even while giving you true, pure, love,

You were able to teach me how to accept in peace your physical parting –

But, Daddy, to me there are NO GOODBYES,

you are with me,

LIVE in my heart,

I feel you and know you are with me, by my side!

I LOVE YOU DADDY, I LOVE YOU!
