a postcard to my younger self

Hold on, it's going to be a bumpy ride. 

Kiss him once more for one day he will be gone.  Forgive and Foget the pain.  Enjoy the children, they will give you strength. 

Move to NY but do it early on, before the children, go on, you can do it.

Talk to your father that day when he sat on the couch waiting to die and all you could do is make rice pudding.  He wants to tell you how much he loves you and you want to tell him just how much you respect him.  He is your hero.

Hold and kiss the girls more, they will grow up so fast.
