Honestly, I tried to write about this since I first saw a music video of Hurt by Christina Aguilera. Somehow, I lost for words to write. Maybe it was a coincidence, the song touches my heart deeply. It reminds me of my late father.

"I'm sorry for blaming you for everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself
If I had just one more day, I would tell you how much that
I've missed you since you've been away"

My father died when I was 10. And am blaming him for all that I've been thru. Not until I realized, that am blaming myself because I don't know how to forgive myself. Forgiving... it is easy to say, but to look deeper into your soul and find it, like finding a needle in a hacksacks. Guess I'm lucky to find it!

"Would you tell me I was wrong?
Would you help me understand?
Are you looking down upon me?
Are you proud of who I am?
There's nothing I want to do
To have just one more chance
To look into your eyes and see you looking back"

I may not have my father besides me, but am glad that he was my father. He may not be around, but always in my heart. May God bless him, so I pray....
