I figured out why I was so emotional last night…

The Daily Dash: October 12, 2017 {2 Years Since My Dad Died}

Being a disciple means deliberately identifying yourself with God’s interests in other people – Oswald Chambers

IN MY LIFE
After not falling asleep until 4am two days ago, a trip to the spa at The Chattanoogan was exactly what I needed yesterday. The only full-service spa in Chattanooga, Kariss and I were treated to manicures in the serene setting. My only regret is that we didn’t discover the spa closer to the beginning of our stay. We will definitely be back.

We made it back to Nashville last night, but I felt quite sad and couldn’t figure out why. I thought perhaps it was just because I was so tired after being gone for three days, but just before bed it dawned on me: today is the 2 day anniversary of my dad’s death.

It seems hard to believe it’s been 2 years since he passed. There are so many times I wish I could pick up the phone to call him and ask for advice. When that happens, I still speak my questions into the universe and I truly believe he hears and answers me, with the help of the Holy Spirit. His passing is the reason I sign off the way I do from each episode of the Daily Dash. So today, more than ever, make sure you don’t wait to let someone you love know how you feel about them!
