Imagine:
Me - 10:30 am in canada, sitting in my car in St Adolphe D'Howard ( About 140 KM NW of Montreal ). My car is parked in front of the church and I am overlooking a beautiful snow covered lake.... Impossible to imaging a more typical Canadian winter scene. My iPad hanging over my steering wheel.
Yuta - 12:30 am in Japan, sitting in his girlfriends apartment, looking awesome! 120 KM south of Tokyo, Casually looking forward in front of his phone.
Roughly 10 years has passed - so much has happened, so much to share ....
Time has a way of challenging you to remember but what time doesn't know is that not a day has passed that I haven't thought of my boys (Yuta and Louis). Routinely waking up and wondering what they were thinking and how they were doing? Walking into store and wondering if they would like to have that.... Being in the middle of a run and seeing the sun in the sky and wondering if they like running .... Closing my eyes and trying to fall asleep and wondering if they are thinking of me ...
Time - I crushed your constant tick tock and have been able to continue to remember and strengthen my ever lasting love for both Yuta and Louis!!!!!!!
Action: press the call button in my Skype app and BAM there he is, sitting right in front of me.....
What can I say? How can share what I am feeling in that moment.... The honest truth is that I can't!
It is impossible for me to communicate how much love I am feeling at that moment ... Yes love ...
The time will come for us to try and share with words how we got to that moment .... But for now we start eating the metaphorical elephant 1 bite at a time .....
Yuta - I love you and look forward to spending time with you ....
Love, Dad
