A Nod to My Dad

Today would be my father’s birthday if he were alive.

He, unfortunately, passed away 23 years ago at the untimely age of 51.

Most memories are fuzzy at this point. I pull out photos to remember his smile.

His voice, though, I still hear.

Three lines in particular accompany me, bolster me, and continue to challenge me.

You can do anything you set your mind to.

Keep a hand extended. You never know when someone will need it.

You’re my hero.

Those words reverberate differently to a son now in mid-life himself. But speak into my life, inspire my heart, and test my mettle, they continue to do.

Thanks Dad.
