Dear Daddy…It’s Been a Year

Posted on

I can’t believe it’s been a year since you left the family. When you first left the days seemed to move in slow motion, then like a gust of wind that swooshes by, you closed a year.

Even though 365 days have passed, our hearts still long to have you with us. The tears, of your absence, now come upon us less, but less tears does not lessen the loss.

Daddy, It took a year to finally stop the vision of your final hours with us, and thoughts of what could we have done different to keep you with us. As the anniversary of your leaving falls upon us, we came to terms with that final farewell. It was not easy but losing a father never is. I do know it is comforting to us that you are now in a better place, a glorious place, a place were pain and sadness cease to exist.

Daddy, do give our love to Jesus and to all the family members that went before you, It is comforting to know that you are now with a heavenly family.

By the way, Daddy, you know that no matter how much time passes you will always be missed, and forever loved.

Sincerely,

Your family

A Tale Of Two Brothers by Eveline Hasler/ Kathi Bhend

A TALE OF TWO BROTHERS

Once upon a time, long,longago, there lived two brothers. Their names were Morris and Boris. They looked like twins since they both had humps on their backs. From a distance it looked as though they’re carrying backpacks. But if you got to know them, you’d see that they were very different. Morris was helpful and kind to everyone he met. He took care of the cattle and fussed over the plants int he garden. Boris never had a kind word for anyone. He beat the cows and never gave them quite enough to eat. The plants on his land grew wild, nearly choked by weeds.

Then one day Morris was given a gift by the forest witch. His hump was removed. When Boris saw that Morris had this wonderful event happen to him, he too wanted to have his hump removed. However, Boris, who is not Morris, did not get what he wanted because Boris needed to change his ways.

“Bhend creates complex, wonderfully animistic landscapes, filled with both accurately rendered natural details, and hidden faces and forms woven into the underbrush .”- Kirkus Reviews.
