Ocean of sadnes

Every thing reminds me of my dad today. I cant describe how much I miss him. My dad was such a great role model for me. He taught me every thing I know about exquisite cooking. He taught me the secrets of getting the most out of the earth and having a luscious garden. Through his actions he showed me compassion for all living things. He was the prime example of fairness. He was proud, strong and a fighter, right up to the very end. I wish Heaven had a telephone so I can just speak to him for a few minutes. I would tell him how much I love him and admire his courage. We would talk of the bush veld and all the adventures we had there. We would laugh and joke and just before we would say goodbye, he would look at me kindly and just smile. I couldn't have asked for a better dad. He contributed to the person I am today. My dad is my hero, and he will always be with me through the important lessons he taught me.
