Passenger: Let Her Go..

Well.  I'm a huge fan of haunting lyrics.

Well, you only need the light when it's burning low,
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow,
Only know you love her when you let her go.

Only know you've been high when your'e feeling low,
Only hate the road when you're missing home.
Only know you love her when you let her go,
And you let her go.

Staring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
But dreams come slow and they go so fast

You see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you'll understand why
Everything you touch surely dies

But you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go

Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
'Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast

Well you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
'Cause you loved her too much and you dived too deep

Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go
Ooooh ooooh ooooh

And you let her go
Ooooh ooooh ooooh

Well you let her go

'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go

'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go

And you let her go

Goodnight My Sweet Love

It's with the heaviest of hearts that I let you all know that my dad passed away on Thursday.  He has been very sick for the last two months and in and out of the hospital. His liver was compromised by the cancer, and failed him. 

I don't even have words to convey how heartbroken I am. I miss him so very much every minute of every day.  He was the most amazing father I could have ever asked for. He was kind, generous, sweet, funny and loving. 

I wish him nothing but peace and love and light.  And if he can, I hope he watches over me from above as he always did in life. 

A lot of you have been on this long journey with myself and my dad - and you all know it was a hard one. But we were blessed with three more years than we expected.  I can't thank you all enough for your love and support over these last few years - you'll never know how much it truly meant to me. 

Thank you. 

This was the last sunrise we watched together from his hospital bed.  It seemed so beautiful at the time - and now, it is even more beautiful to me because I'll never be able to do this again with him.

An Old Porch...

Sometimes, it's best to sit on an old porch and be reminded of who you are and where you're going. 

Good friends always do that. 

Funny how some porches never change.

Happy Sunday!

Summer Body? Try Every Day Body...

Since I pulled the tendons in my feet, running won't be an option for a little while. So I joined the gym to hit the ski machine, bike and weights.

I have to say, I did kinda miss the gym. Now I go at about 9 every night...so it's not terribly crowded. Maybe it's the change in routine I like too.

So, my friends..I encourage you to live healthy. Eat right and work out. If you smoke, maybe you should consider quitting...cut back on the booze. Add some years back onto your life.

Hope all is well with you all. Lots of love and light to you and yours.
