Ever
note the day’s date and feel there is something significant that you ought to
have remembered about it, but you draw a blank?
This
happens to me now and then, and usually it involves someone’s birthday who I
have lost touch with long ago. Sometimes it’s a calendar date I made a point to
remember for practical reasons, (time to turn the mattress, time to begin
watering the yard, time to check on a relative who should have completed a last
round of chemotherapy) but it was long ago.
Today’s
date is an easy one for me: it celebrates the birth of a wonderful person I was
lucky to have known. He left this earth, but his mark on it is alive and
continues to bless many.
Happy Birthday, Abba
Happy birthday to your father, Mirka. You will meet him in heaven!
ReplyDeleteYes, happy birthday to your father. From all the things you've told me about him, he sounds like a wonderful person.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your dad!
ReplyDeleteYes, I know the feeling of forgetting why a date is important. Comes from having too much on the plate.
Wishing you all the best in 2024!
Happy birthday to your father, Mirka. My husband and I and my brother and I remember all our relatives' birthdays, too.
