Another Email I received from my dad on June 16th...11 days before he passed away.

Hi Robin,
             Here's some more of my thoughts as reflected in this little poem. Perhaps it has no important or significance to you.....and that's quite all right with me. Yet....I wanted to share with you .....feel more than free to zap it into cyber space.
             I hope and trust that you are getting along ok. Please take care of your health...especially at this once in a life time event.
                                                                       Love,
                                                                          Daddy 
                                           
                                                          The Past

Living in the moment is the way to be....dwelling on the past...will never set you free.
Each conscious second is as precious as the last...yet being in the present is always a task.
We ponder days gone by wishing for change...But alas..it's ludicrous for it will eternally remain the same.
Why do we reflect and dream in this past....knowing each moment could be our last?
Memories hint of how we might change....yet to dream in the past is truly insane.
So dwell in the future my incarnate fool.....as moment follows moment in this brief living school.
                                                         Robert French Charles

Grandma sewing room

So I am almost done with cleaning my grandmas sewing room that wasn’t touched in 10 years because of all the mess, but now that she passed away 2 days ago, I don’t know if I should continue, I wanna finish what I started but I don’t know what to do, my grandpa is still alive and I don’t want to leave this burden on him.See More
