With yesterday being Father's Day, I have been thinking about my dad a lot and what he has done and been through during his journey. He is still my inspiration and till this very day he is always around when it comes to going through a trial or challenge in my life. I am often asking myself this very question "What would my dad want me to do? Would he want me to succeed in life? have a successful relationship with my mom and siblings?" These are just a few questions that I have been focusing on lately. Knowing that he is up their guiding me in the right path, I will always remember what Father's Day meant to my dad. Let's not forget that my sister got married on the 17th of June two years ago.
I do think about what I can do to help those around me. When friends, work, or mission are in the work of art or in this case my life. Not a day goes by that I think about the many attributes that my dad demonstrated and shared among his kids. I know that he is up in heaven watching over his siblings, my mom, sister, me, and my brother. I also know that when he is up there he is having a great time getting to know my future nephew and nieces. I miss my dad more than ever and since the day he passed away a lot has happened these last eight or nine years that he has been gone. Although it may seem like Father's day would be the hardest for me, but truth to be told it isn't the hardest day.
Fast forward to now, I am on my LDS Service Mission here at the Records Operation Center in my hometown and coming up to 13 months on my mission tomorrow. I did graduate from Dixie State University with my Associates Degree last month, my half brother little boy is going to be two in December and I couldn't be anymore proud of the guy my brother is and with my sister she is expecting in September and it is another nephew. Have a friend on his mission right now and is on the home stretch with it being his last summer in the Berlin Germany Mission.
As you can tell a lot has been going on these last couple of years. Also, Happy Father's to future fathers and the fathers now. This includes grandpa's, uncles, brother in law, brother, friends that are father's and many others.
