Your Still Here

This is something I read and I find this so true with Don. At the finest level of my being, you're still with me. We still look at each other, at that level beyond sight. We talk and laugh with each other, in a place beyond words. We still touch each other, on a level beyond touch. We share time together in a place, where time stands still. We are still together, on a level called Love. But I cry alone for you, in a place called reality. Written by: Richard Lepinsky Hugs to you all. Phyl

That is so true in my life. I've never seen it in writing but I understand the sentiment because my Don has always been in my life when I need to have him. It's amazing how when I need him most I hear him talk to me. There was a time I was frustrated and he said, "try harder. " I knew it was him. Thanks for sharing your post with me. Sharon

Lovely words and so well written describes everything I have felt. I heard my Frank just today, I have heard him often. Today is the 8 month anniversary for me and my kids. We all miss Daddy very much. How I wish he was with me here to help me navigate my way with our two baby boys ages six and three. My six year old Joshua wants to play baseball this year in the fall. Thank goodness I was a tomboy growing up and that I loved baseball. Frank was, to me, the greatest baseball player who ever lived, he played for Easton until he was 40, he died at 48...he was also a USSSA Umpire for men's baseball. Easton paid Frankie to play, he played all over the country. Baseball was life. Thank heaven I can hear him in my head as I'm playing ball w Josh and Jake..."legs apart, get that bat off your shoulder. Don't swing at that boy we ain't playin golf! Look for the sweet spot on the bat son..."
Thank you for sharing this today

Phyl,

Thank you for this post. It says in words, exactly the connection I have and will always have with my Darrell. He IS still with me - just on another plane/level.

Thanks, again.

Hugs,

Terry

I can fully relate. I know my husband is with me, as I have felt his presence since he passed. Some may think I am crazy, but I don't really care.

Glad that someone actually wrote about it.

Thanks for sharing that - it expresses how I feel about Cliff and have never been able to adequately convey - he's with me, a part of me.

Love and Hugs,
