To live is to grieve

Every end, a beginning

What are hills with no valleys?

    And I loved him, too. And isn’t it so true that the days are long and the years are so short……..

    I’ve never heard that saying before but it so appropriate.
    A lovely way, and photo to remember your Dad and commemorate the day.
    Best wishes 🙂

      Thank you EllaDee. It is one of my favourite sayings, and I have no idea where it originated.
