Struggled yesterday with Father's Day!

I had tough time getting out of bed yesterday. My day off and all! I think I got overwhelmed thinking about the past and my current situation with my Wife. I struggled but made it through. I soaked up the love of my Children and Wife even though I felt like I was dying inside. I pulled it togther and got up for work at 2am this morning to get out on The Ocean to check Lobster Traps. The day today buoyed my spirits! I am trying to live one day at a time, not letting the past dictate my future. Take care all!❤🙏🏼

Exactly!❤ I agree with you 100%.. I cannot lose out on the Present moments because of the past or what I cannot control in the Future.. And Thanks I snapped the pic quick with my phone as drove up the shoreline. Turned out decent for quick snapshot!😊

Yw!❤ Thats the North Atlantic and I'd be lost without it! Its a beautiful area and I try not to take it for granted. As I worked today I got to see Seals, Bald Eagles, tons of Sea Birds and a Whale That stuff enriches my Soul.. and raises my Vibration!😊❤

Living one day at a time is great advice. You are so strong. I hear you it’s been a rough time for you. And you know it’s ok not to feel ok; just keep up hope for after every difficulty comes ease.

Sorry to hear that but glad you are feeling so much better now.

I lost my dad 13 years ago so find Fathers Day hard. To make it a lot worse my mother died on the 19th June 9 years ago too. It was a friend's birthday too

Hope you had a great day! My father passed away in 2016 from an overdose, and fathers day is tough for me too. As long as you show your family them love, support, and consistency you will be surprised how much things can evolve for the better !
