It was my birthday yesterday, and it would have been my dad’s birthday today. We celebrated all of our birthdays together when I was a kid, and he was very much like my twin and the person I wanted to be like. He was my hero.
I think it’s important to remember our lost loved ones on special days and to remember the ways in which they made us laugh and smile. Though it also hurts, it’s a healthy way to process loss and to feel a connection to the one you love, and miss ♥️
Happy birthday dad. You were always a real one 🫶
