[...] It took me a long time to get here too. When my dad was alive, we barely spoke. I was so angry. I talked about it last year on my birthday. Last year a couple months before my birthday I finally forgave my dad and with that forgiveness [...]

Honey I am so sorry that you are hurting. I truly believe that your dad knows now how you feel and is not only forgiving you for things that you said or did that you are not proud of, but knows that you have forgiven him for all his mistakes as well. We don’t really KNOW what happens after death, but I believe that all things are known to us and we watch over those we love, so he does know!!

I have felt the presence of those I have lost, so I know that something of them is still here and I can talk out loud to my grandmother and know that she hears and understands.

Try just talking to your dad, like he was standing next to you, get everything, good and bad, out there and maybe you will feel better!

Hugs and happy birthday!! You are loved!!

oh, becky…i am so sorry you are in pain right now. there is not much i can say, but your dad knew you loved him and if you said things then that you think were hurtful…well, it came from the hurt in your own heart and he knew that and i’m sure he adored you just the same.

thinking of you and hope you can wake up next year with a lighter heart.
happy birthday.

Oh yes he does know. Don’t think that you are in a bubble and energy and feelings don’t go beyond the realm you can understand. Have the conversations with him now that you wish you had when his physical body was here on earth. You’ll feel better.

This was such a powerful post — I have a lump in my throat as I type this comment. I can’t imagine how much your heart must hurt on what should be such a happy day for you. I’m sure your dad knows that you love him and is looking down on you with such pride at the life you’ve made for yourself. Pour all of that built up regret into something positive — shower your kids and your husband with all the hugs and kisses that you can and know that you are loved here on earth & up above.

Happy Birthday!
