Just need to vent I guess so I’m sorry if it’s just that. Lost my dad 10 months ago now, and it still feels so raw in so many ways. I had to go into work today, and while it was incredibly tough with the sadness that Father’s Day specifically has brought, I feel like the other feelings get talked about less. The anger has been real today, just seeing other young adults who are around my age with their dads has been quite hard. With the sadness you can of course cry to let it out, but the anger I have absolutely no idea what to do with really. I know that I’m not the only person who’s going through or ever will go through this but still it can just feel unjust sometimes. I miss him so much and sometimes I just feel angry at the fact that he isn’t here anymore. I’m in the middle of planning my wedding that he’s never going to be at. I have no idea who’s going to walk me down the aisle. I’m probably going to have to spend more time without him than with him. Again, sorry this doesn’t really have a point, sometimes even just a rant can help I suppose. Sending love to anyone else who’s found this day difficult xxx
