“I am going home to Denmark, Son, and I just want to tell you I love you.”
In my dad’s last telephone call to me, he 36 that line several times in half an hour. I wasn’t listening at the right level. I heard the words, but not the message, and 37 not their deeper meaning. I believed my dad would live to be 100 years old, 38 my great uncle lived to be 107 years old. I hadn’t felt his 39 over Mum’s death, understood his loneliness or 40 most of his friends had left the world. He often asked my brother and me to create grandchildren 41 he could be a devoted grandfather. I was too busy with my business to really listen.
“Dad’s dead,” sighed my brother not long after dad went back to Denmark.
I was 42 and just cried for the loss of my dad. This isn’t the 43 it’s supposed to happen. If I had known these were to be dad’s final days, I would have asked to go with him to Denmark. If I had been really listening and thinking, I would have offered fort during his final hours. After all, a loved one should hold his hand and 44 him as he makes the transition(过渡) from reality to another world. Dad 45 his departure(离开) repeatedly, but I 46 it. I felt sadness, pain and regret. Why had I not been there for him? He’d always been there for me. In the mornings when I was nine years old, he 47 e home from working 18 hours and 48 me up by patting my back lightly with his strong powerful hands and whispering, “Time to get up, Son.” 49 I was dressed and ready to go, he had put my schoolbag in my bicycle basket. Recalling these 50 moments with dad brings tears to my eyes.
Now my heart is still in 51 because dad was there for me and I wasn’t there for him. My hearty 52 is: always, always seize the moment to 53 your love with your loved ones, and keep them 54 when they leave the world. Experiencing the 55 of death with one you love will make you understand the meaning of life better.
