Today is Father's day! When my Father was a young man, he was in a serious motorcycle accident. He broke both legs, an arm, his nose. He should have died. One night, we were sitting around the house, just visiting and he wanted to share with me about his experience. He shared with me about the terror, and pain he was in after the accident. When he was in the operating room, he thought often about how that was the end, and he had begun to make peace. At that moment, he looked over and saw my Mother standing at the door. She was several months pregnant with me. My Dad said that he left his body, and floated over to my Mother, and then he went inside of her, and he saw me! He said that what he saw were more like colors, and he felt feelings, and thoughts were being communicated to him from me! He recalled how I had sent him a message that it wasn't his time to go, and that he needed to stay on earth to be my Dad. That I needed him to be my Dad in order for my life purpose to be fulfilled.
Obviously, he decided to stick around for a while. I am so grateful that he has! I know I haven't made life easy for him, and yet he still chose to be my Dad (at a soul level). He has been my greatest opportunity for unconditional love. He has passed along many life lessons, and has a bad-ass attitude, that next to none would mess with. He is very intelligent, and funny. He has seen many things in his life, and I wish I could spend more time with him. I'd like to thank my Dad for being who he is, and for the fact that underneath all the bull-crap, I know that he really does love me.
We haven't always connected here on the 'physical' plane Dad, but I know how much I love you, and what you have done for me and the role you played in my becoming who I am! Thank-you. I love you.
And in honour of Father's Day, and for the Father's and families, who lost there lives this year, I share the following video:
