Just before she left she said that she wished she didn&#8217;t say she was coming.  But she went.  It is what is familiar, I guess.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>She called my brother saying my dad isn&#8217;t doing well.  Of course we know this.  He has been hanging on for a while now.  I think it is God&#8230; waiting&#8230; giving him chances to fix things&#8230; or maybe he is just stubborn&#8230; my dad.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Have you ever loved someone or something&#8230; yet you know you have to let go?  It is a process, the letting go, but eventually you figure how to release, that pain becomes a dull ache that you feel once in a while, you may see it\/them and then your life goes on&#8230;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Have you?  This is how I feel about my dad.  Yes, I love him.  Yes, I wish for so much more.  Yes, I have to let go or else I&#8217;ll drowned in it&#8230;. the love and pain and hurt.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Maybe what I have spent the past so many years doing is mourning him.  I feel weird inside.<\/div>\n<div>I guess I don&#8217;t wish him dead&#8230; of course not.  Yet, I know that only in death will he have peace.  I wish him peace that passes all understanding.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Because my mom is there&#8230; there will be the ongoing pulling me\/us into the drama.<\/div>\n<div>Until it ends.  <\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>And then what?  I don&#8217;t know.  But I am feeling that dull ache.  I am feeling tired.  I am feeling that pull.  I am feeling tired of always having to be strong  to fight against getting pulled into that cycle.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Never do I want to be part of that cycle.  Is that OK?  Well it has to be.  I don&#8217;t think I would survive going back to it again.
