My dad passed away yesterday. I can’t process anything, I’m barely 17, the last time I met him was almost 4 months ago. He left us a very long time ago when I was little we went basically no contact till maybe 1-2 years ago he started coming back into our lives, he was putting in efforts to try and revive his relationship with both his daughters. He got me a puppy for my 16th last year, and ever since we started communicating more often. I turn 17 next month and now he’s already gone. All of this happened all of a sudden. No one was prepared. I fell sick to my stomach I couldn’t even believe the fact that my dad, who was barely physically present throughout my life, though he was still there. He existed. And just when things were about to get better, boom.

To all of you who read this as a reminder I want you to know to not take anything for granted. If both your parents are still alive, consider it a privilege. A luxury. Call them up right now and tell them you love them. All of it could really end on a random Tuesday, and all of a sudden your life is completely different. To anybody out there who’s also grieving the loss of a loved one, do know, you are loved and appreciated far beyond you can imagine. I don’t know what you believe in, but their energy always wanders around people they loved most. You are allowed to grieve, to cry, let it all out. I’d love to hear you

I wish I got to hear my dad’s voice one last time. Now I wait a whole lifetime.
