I Miss My Dad

Dad, it's been 5 weeks since someone decided to end your life and I can't fill the void within. Everyone keeps saying how strong I am, how brave I am to go back to work and move on with my life. The truth is I'm still in total shock, not quite aware that you are gone forever, that I will never be able to hear your voice again, or hug or kiss you. You still are the single most influential person in my life. You are the reason I am who I am. All my successes I owe to you, the example you set for me. And I thank God he made you my father, and I your daughter. I thank God I recognized and appreciated all the great qualities you possesed: humility, honor, compassion. You taught me that one must work hard, but that work is not everything. You treated the janitor with the same respect you treated the president of a company, and that I will take with me forever. You were not too good about expresing your emotions, yet I always knew how much you loved me, how proud you were of me, how happy we were just being around each other. The last time I saw you, Dad, I hugged you and told you that I loved you. I'm glad that I did. If only we could do it one more time...
