Weekly Photo Challenge: Journey

This “journey” requires two photos: Daddy and Me — Then and Now

The “journey” through life isn’t too hard when you have
the best daddy in the world by your side.

    1. I wish you did too, Gilly. When we have a really good and happy relationship with our parents, there’s just no other relationship that can ever quite give us what that does. I lost my mother about 30 years ago. She and I were so close. We shared everything with each other. I miss her so much to this day and would give most of what I own to have 30 minutes to sit and talk with her.

      The Lord brought my dad another good wife a few years after my mother’s passing, and he has had the opportunity to bring up another family and be the exemplary father to them that they needed as well.

      And I was very blessed when the Lord brought me a husband who had all the strength and determination of my dad and the sweetness and graciousness of my mother. Unfortunately, he went to be with the Lord about 9 years ago. (Well, unfortunately for me — certainly not for him.) But I see in me and my own nature the good things from all of these people as they have made their mark on me, and I’m exceedingly grateful.

  1. Great interpretation of the theme! I lost my beloved father 1 1/2 years ago; we had a wonderful “journey” together. Treasure every minute!

  2. It is wonderful to have an inspiring person with you to live your life’s journey. I enjoyed looking at your unusual interpretation of this week’s theme.

    1. Thank you. I’ve had a wonderful, close relationship with both of my parents. My mother went on to be with the Lord about 30 years ago, but I miss her very much to this day. My dad is now 87 and going strong, so we still get to spend some time together.
