(I went to CT, and I decided to sit with my Dad and write today’s Sunrise Page)

Greetings, Dad –

I figured I was down in CT, I might swing by for a visit.  Of course, I know we’re together in the Everywhen, and it’s just a stone and bones here, but still.  I thought I’d stop by.

It’s a beautiful day, and this is a beautiful spot.  You and Mom made a nice choice.  Even the monument here, for the area – The Four Seasons – really resonates with me.

Everyone is carrying on.  We all have our struggles, which is certainly part of living.  I know you’ve shared with me before how a lot of it is just stuff we think we should hang onto, that we really can just let go.  I’m trying.

Did you see me on my paddling adventure last weekend?  How exciting is that, for me to take on new learning and new activities?  Life’s too short to not try new things, don’t you think?

And, I’ve been golfing with people from work, playing and sharing my love of golf.  Building community, which is exciting and fulfilling.

It helps me feel like I’m closer to home.

Well, I’m going to head back north now.  Thanks for so much, Dad!  I’ll be seeing you, out on the water, on the golf course, and in the mountains.  Keep smiling on us.

Dear Reader, here’s a Prompt for today:

What’s been happening in your life?  Take the time to identify your struggles, and congratulate yourself for working with and through them, and commend yourself for successes and efforts that you’ve made.

Remember that you are loved – so, how about writing this to a loved one?

Onward and upward, Dad!  Much Love, Always!
