My dead dad’s journal
I felt very strongly with this story - and thank you for sharing.<p>My mother passed away at 59. She was healthy, and thought she had decades to live. Then she got sick, and thought she had years. Few months later, we had a call on our way to the hospital, she was dead.<p>I didn&#x27;t have the greatest relationship with my mother and the disease didn&#x27;t allow us to do more than scratch the surface. She wasn&#x27;t an open person but I know her mind was rich. She left with it and nobody will ever be able to get the full picture. Maybe that&#x27;s what she wanted, but almost a year later I know something will still be missing inside me.<p>A lot of people here are entrepreneurs and I think a common goal is to leave our trace in this world, and make our temporary stay less temporary. We tend to forget that everything is temporary and always think we have time, but really, we don&#x27;t.<p>This feeling first created within me a constant feeling of rush and stress, still present, but is evolving in a urge to focus on what is truly essential to me.<p>I, for some strange&#x2F;personal reasons struggle to write what&#x27;s in my head. My thoughts are very disorganized and always feel what&#x27;s on the paper doesn&#x27;t reflect the original idea. If you have felt in a similar way, I am very interested in hearing stories on how you overcame this.<p>I believe we all have a treasure to share, maybe not to the world, but to a few people to who we matter.
