Arms Wide Open / Daddy Mike (Dad)
Today being Taylor's birthday is a day that changed my life and changed me as a person. As I have said before he taught me more about Love than I ever dreamed possible. I feel You man I feel You.
I have always heard that time heals all wounds. I agree that time helps but Love is what heals all wounds. The depth of my pain has been a reflection of the magnitude of the Love we have for each other. Yes that is present tense. I still feel it. I still nuture it and often when I have a morning Prayer I meditate and give Taylor a Hug.
I alone am not capable of getting thru such a tremendous loss. My life is a testiment to the fact that there is some Power Greater than me working in my life. My idea was to put up walls and not dare to Love at that level ever again. God just laughed and had other plans.
I now have a grandchild. Aria in 2 yrs old and a darn good reason to get up in the morning. We ride lawnmowers, 4 wheelers, motorcycles, gocarts and anything else we can find. Once again I find myself with Arms Wide Open daring to Love. Being willing to Touch Hearts has helped me thru.
I have gotten several calls and e-mails this morning. Got one from Clint. We talked for a long time. Thats Taylor's best friend ever. Just want to say Thanks. With the help of God and true friends I've come to realize that I have two strongs legs and even wings to fly....
When we lost Taylor I stopped to imagine what it would look like if it had been me. I would have expected Taylor to be sad and grieve but would certainly want him to go on and enjoy life. It is with that Spirit that I carry on today. Life Goes On. Dare to touch Hearts, Forgive and be Sure the People You Love Know It.
Taylor... Nothin but Love man Nothin but Love Daddy Mike
