as some of you know, I lost dh 6 years ago and had his dd 3 years ago.
Well, my FIL has recently died and the funeral is on Thursday. I think i've always believed that dh is around but the last few days I have wondered, you know, how can someone live on when their body shows nothing. Is it really possible for them to still be around?
Anyway, too many times to mention, a prominent song for dh would come on the radio or in the shops when something significant is being done or bought for dd, it always happens.
My experience this morning really knowcked me and brought my belief back.
I had to visit dd's potential 1st school and after I dropped her at nursery I made my way to the school. I turned on the radion and immediately the next song came on...........Tom Petty was his favourite and I had a song played at the funeral - it was almost going to be this one but I chose something else. I loved the school btw but am going to visit another on Thursday just before the funeral. Just wanted to write my thoughts down really. Thanks for listening.
Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still
CHORUS:
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Well the good ol' days may not return
And the rocks might melt and the sea may burn
CHORUS
Well some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
So I've started out for God knows where
I guess I'll know when I get there
I'm learning to fly, around the clouds
But what goes up must come down
CHORUS
