A visit home...


Went home this weekend, after a while... and realized how much I've missed my family... mama, my sis, lil Tia... A longer trip the next time... I'm thinking have them come over and head out to the hills somewhere this summer... a throw-back to the trips we used to take when dad was around. Maybe not so much of gettin-in-the-car-and-drivin-where-the-roads-take us... more like booking-a-trip-and-being-sure-of-where-we'll-be-stayin... but a trip nevertheless, a holiday in the real sense... no work, no worries, a firm resolve to have fun and laugh together, something we've been missing I think for a while...
Funny how the fabric of life can unravel so quickly when even a single thread is pulled loose... when one vital link in the chain goes missing, the tale remains forever unfinished...
This collage makes my father's absence glaringly obvious to me... 'an unaccepted death', I'm told... is death ever accepted, or acceptable? I doubt.
Papa, your lil girls are all grown up, even the littlest one... but they haven't grown out of loving, needing and missing you yet, nor will they ever... love you Papa...
P.S: On a lighter note, learning now to edit pics with Picasa, and much much more... looooove what technology can do!
