Stella Damasus:Feels Like Yesterday

Wow! It's amazing how time flies. It's been nine
years since you left us and it still feels like
yesterday. I guess it's because I remember too
many things and feel all the emotions like they just
happened. I woke up this morning with thoughts
and visions of you, wondering what you could be
doing right now and the number of new friends and
angels you would be chatting with now.
You were always the man of the people; who loved
to put smiles on faces, especially mine.
I also wondered what and who you would expect
me to be now. I wondered if I have done justice to
at least a huge portion of all the plans we had
together.
Before I got out of bed I wanted to make sure that
wherever you are, there would still be a smile on
your face when you see how far I have gone. I
nodded my head, smiled and got up because I
knew that God heard us those nights we held
hands and prayed together, asking for his help in
accomplishing what we set out to do, especially in
the lives of our children Isabel and Angelica. He
has done great things in our lives and has
continued to be there for us.
Jaiye, your girls miss you so much and I have made
sure that whenever they hear any of your songs,
they know it's you because that voice has
remained in their hearts. Isabel still tells me how
she knows that her shoe size came from you and
Angelica insists that her height has nothing to do
with me but owes it to you. Above all they know
and will always know what a wonderful and loving
father you were. Nothing will ever change that no
matter what.
As I always say 'time does not heal wounds, it only
makes the load and pain lighter. Only God can heal
wounds'.
Today I am writing this letter to you and I am not
crying, instead I am smiling because in my heart I
know you are in the best place ever, where your
laughter will resonate.
I miss you so much my love and I know that when
the time comes I will see you again.
Okay, let me go and face the world now. You are so
lucky because you no longer have to deal with all
the hate, gossip, backbiting, deception, oppression,
sickness, war, accidents, disasters, robbery and all
the other things the rest of us have to deal with.
Rest in the arms of The Lord JAY.
Let me go and continue with all the negativity the
world brings. My happiness is that I am not going
alone, my God is with me all the way.
