There is gold in those distant hills

There is gold in those distant hills. And the gold is the two big, desirable emotions we all want to possess – peace and contentment.

Peace with who we are.

Content with what we have.

Authenticity is the only path.

Everyday is Father’s Day, no?

Hey Dad, assuming there’s a cool version of FB where you are.

Sorry we didn’t get to spend more time together.

Guess I thought you’d live forever.

Never in a million years saw Alzheimer’s (the early onset, rapid-progression kind) coming.

Looking back, guess I used career ambition to hide the pain and denial.

My bad.

I know you forgive me and I’m at peace with that.

And hey, your Grandson (the one you never got to meet, although the trip was just two months away), he’s taller than me now – yeah, he’s only 12.

And one more thing. Thought it was amazing that you were 50 before you bought your first car brand new.

At 54, I’m still waiting. Guess I’m an over achiever like that.

I’ll see you when I see you.

PS. Happy Father’s Day Dad.

Been posting on FB, LI, G+, and Twitter about gratitude and forgiveness being the two keys to peace and joy.

Be thankful for everything. Everything.

Forgive everything. Everything.

Of course this is challenging.

So is doing what Jesus would do.

We can do this.

And the answer(s) may be at our feet.
