sharyn Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Dear Berisa - You and your family are in my every thought and prayer... What a brave and courageous woman you are. Your Dad is already very proud of you! This I am sure. I pray that you will continue to find peace and acceptance of God's wishes and the line that you said about "turning your Dad over into God's hands" was just so very beautiful...." Please stay in touch with us - I particularly have felt very close to you as another daughter taking care of her Dad. With much sympathy and love, Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As everyone else has already expressed with great eloquence, you have been a gracious and caring daughter, care-giver, and soul throughout your father's battle. He must have been an extraorinary man to have raised such a daughter. Please know that our thoughts are with you and we are "here" in case you need to talk through these difficult times.

Fall54 Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 In reading this tonight in my e mail it reminded me of your loss I wish you "Enough" At an airport, I overheard a father and his daughter in their last moments together. They had announced her plane's departure and standing near the door she said, "Daddy, our life together has been more than enough. Your love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough too, Daddy." They kissed good-bye and she left. He walked over towards the window where I was seated. Standing there I could see he wanted and needed to cry. I tried not to intrude on his privacy, but he welcomed me in by asking, "Did you ever say good-bye to someone knowing it would be forever?" "Yes, I have," I replied. Saying that brought back memories I had of expressing my love and appreciation for all my Dad had done for me. Recognizing that his days were limited, I took the time to tell him face to face how much he meant to me So I knew what this man was experiencing. "Forgive me for asking, but why is this a forever good-bye?" I asked. "I am old and she lives much too far away. I have challenges ahead and the reality is, her next trip back will be for my funeral," he said. "When you were saying good-bye I heard you say, 'I wish you enough,may I ask what that means?" He began to smile. "That's a wish that has been handed down from other generations. My parents used to say it to everyone." He paused for a moment and looking up as if trying to remember it in detail, he smiled even more. "When we said, 'I wish you enough,' we were wanting the other person to have a life filled with enough good things to sustain them" He continued and then, turning toward me, he shared the following as if he were reciting it from memory: I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright. I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive. I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger. I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting. I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess. I wish you enough "Hellos" to get you through the final "Good-bye" He then began to sob and walked away. My friends and loved ones, I wish you enough.
