From a Father to a son

Posted by Gordon Woolley placed in

Today is one of the days when I can not help but remember.
From an old soul, I feel you. From my life we are connected.
For a man to experience life you must know death and I am proud to die with you.
I am reborn in your laughter. I hold you in your tears.
I am your father, you are my Dad. Together we learn even when we are apart physically.
Our metaphysical connection will always be there.
When we stop living in sight we see that no one ever leaves.
I will always be with you and you with me. When a bond is formed it is never broken.
Only a broken heart can blind you, be happy we are free.
When we leave, we never go. Only in detachment you can see that we are never apart.
One man never stands alone, we stand together, free.
Free to fly, Free to love, Free to be who we want to be.
Only someone who can not see thinks they are bound, physically, mentally, emotionally, metaphysically.
When you give up everything you become everything.
Do you remember?
Remember the time when you were connected, when there were no bound, no restrictions, and no conditions?
That is why I watch children. The children know. And we force you to desert what you hold sacred.
We raise you to hold false standards, to want what is outside of yourself.
And what you will want is exactly what we made you desert.
I know, I have been there and I continue to force my will.
I know I am broken when I forget I can see.
We are taught by the broken so we teach our broken will.
It is a difficult life when you are broken, when you forget that you are light, when you forget that you are free, when you forget that the love that we share is endless.
Our love is always even when we are not.
I am honored to see you in life, to know you in death and to join you in eternity.
