Happy Birthday Dad...
Jul. 4th, 2008 09:31 pmWhen we first met, neither of us knew what to do. I was 21, you were...already "old."
We had some tough times learning about each other, and by the time we both got over our stubborn natures, you died.
This year I miss you more than anything. All the things I wish you could tell me. About your life, about your decisions, about your goals.
People tell me that I am a spitting image of you...with dreams and goals just like yours. However, your family mostly shuns me because I am not Mormon, and because I was the love-child of your Jack Mormon days. As I struggle to know more about you - the jazz pianist, court-room lawyer, and devoted student of healing - I wonder if we will ever meet in person again.
Right now I know you are close, and that you have been very close of late.
I miss you.
I hope you can see the fireworks in Heaven.
Love and hugs,
Kim-Chi
