Alive to remember

My Dad was a candle that lit a lot of other candles, he believe in the intrinsic value of relationship. He a-times dealt perfectly with betrayals from friends a-times he didn’t. He had a way of parenting that was unique, he had a little bit of his self centered side but never used it to anyone’s detriment cos he ended up still sharing with others. He was my mirror that whenever I needed to solve mysterious issues would show the path, my father would give our breakfast out to others as their lunch.
Hmm, death! Created by God yet can’t kill him then why should I question God for he give the and he takes. Life is cruel, even our friends betray us but my Dad never did, I would miss that one person that honestly stood by me. Now am lonely!!!
