Our lives are so busy and sometimes we live so far from our families. We miss the relationships with our families and often we do not even share important life events with them. We need to move back towards our families. If not in actual distance then at least we must move closer in our hearts. We live in a time where there are unprecedented communication possibilities. No one will ever love us unconditionally like our family can. We'd be fools not to take advantage of this opportunity.

There are now three empty chairs at the Christmas table.
It's a time I find difficult, even unable

Only I see what you have done to me.

I am a dad who is too sad to say
My two little girls have been taken away.
Their mother wanted to take them far from me.
My ex-girlfriend and I were together for 9.5 years. We have a beautiful daughter together. Our relationship fell apart. We no longer live together. And since our break-up, she has been angry...
If you saw me on the street
would you stop and talk to me
or would you look right past me,
a stranger you didn't see?...
It's terrible when a mom or dad leaves, but I think you did a great job writing this poem.

17 years has been too long,
I don't know much just that you're gone.
I think about you everyday,
And if I see you what I'd say.
The poem 'Daddy', really touched me because I don't have a father.
