MY HERO :)

I can’t help wondering today where the years have gone since you were just my little girl, Reaching out for me to hold you, to protect you, to love you I can’t help remembering those days, but I also see you as you are now- mature and strong, no longer in need of me to protect you I hope you know, that I am still here to hold you when you want me to and always, always to love you. That’s exactly how my dad feels every time I take a step forward in my life. I don’t want him to think that I am old enough to take care of myself. I don’t want him to let go of me thinking I know everything. It feels great to know that no matter what happens he will always be there for me to offer his unconditional love. I think there is nothing wrong in doing certain things that makes him feel better. If asking for permission every time I go out is what he wants, I would be happy to give him that small pleasure. If consulting him before making any decision is what he expects, why not give him that authority to do so. After all he was the one who made decisions about my life when I was young. I'm daddy's little girl, not because I need it...but because he loves me that way, and because I've been blessed with the maturity to see the wonder of it all.

Full circle

I like the concept of skipping ropes. No matter how high you jump, you always have to come back to earth with a thud.
