A Rosary a day-#59. A simple Christmas Rosary that holds grief

Right or wrong, every Green and Red Rosary I have is one I consider to be A Christmas Rosary. This one was hanging on the simple little Christmas tree my parents had during the last Christmas of my Father's life, Christmas of 2012. On February 25th of 2013, that tree had been transplanted into the front yard and the Rosary still hung on it's branches. My Father left the world about 3:30 that morning. My greatest grief was for the good relationship I did not have with him, growing up. The painful memories that I wish were good ones.

Life is full of grief like that.

After my recent 1700 miles trek through Canada and a bunch of states, I hit a bit of spiritual turbulance caused by that kind of grief. When I lose grip like that, I try to find a way to reconnect and today, that reconnection is with you, Dad.

I humbly ask for your help.
