God I miss my dad!
I knew I should not have watched this, but I love Peter Gabriel.

2. Thank you havocmom
My sainted father left this world a few years back. His birthday is coming up next week. I just find myself missing him a lot at times and now is one. Thank you for the advice, I will look in there and see how I feel about it.

:hug:

3. Keep in mind, we're a small group. The forum moves slow
But the regualars really care and think about how to offer some degree of comfort, if only in company willing to lend an ear.

Sometimes those special days really smack us up between the eyes. Drop by the forum and tell us about him if you feel comfortable with it. It's a place to light a candle.

strength to you, Giant Robot. We get through with help from others who can take the time to offer a hand in friendship and with empathy.

7. My friend
My dad passed in 1980, and that video stirred all that up again. It seems to me the mourning never ends, and they're never really gone. Thanks for posting that ...

8. Arg. I had to stop watching. I was going to cry.
Dammit, Peter Gabriel, how? How does he write songs that are *so* powerful and so simply beautiful?

Damn.
