Today was a hard, but relieving day. I finally got to dump my fathers ashes, as we do in our culture, in a place where he found eternal bliss. It's a blessing my mother was able to recover enough to get on the boat and be there for this. Still sometimes dont believe any of this is true, but glad we could rest him in a place he loved. Closure is coming and I am so thankful for all that are in my life. God bless all of you and your families.

On the day before Thanksgiving my world turned upside down. My Dad and Mom were in a motorcycle accident, and fate took my Father away from me. My mom barely survived, and is in the hospital with serious injuries. Words can't describe what is happening right now. My one half is gone, and my other half has her life changed forever. My parents are my everything. My close ones know how much I talked him up, and how inspiring he was for me. He supported and loved me through it all. Supported my decision to follow my dreams. This is truly a nightmare I cant wake up from. My mother is still with me, which is the only thing I was thankful for on Thanksgiving. She has a long way to go, but she is recovering slowly. My dear Dad I hope you are riding that Harley through the heavens with your head high knowing I will never let your legacy die. What you left behind, not only to me, but everyone that has had the pleasure of meeting you, will not be forgotten. Miss and think about you every moment of the day. Your body may be gone, but your soul lives on through me, your family, and many close friendships you have created along your journey. I love you Dad.

It seems impossible to stress when we realize how insignificant we are. Yet we still do haha. Will we ever learn?? Anyways I made a song in regards to this message. It’s called “Just The Way It Goes.” Have a listen if you’d like! (Link in bio)
