Life Long Lessons: A Father's Letter to His Daughter

By Silas E. Harbor

When the power went out, she became the light.

A single father. A dark apartment. A 6-year-old girl who looked up and said these words that changed his life.

"It's okay, Daddy. You don't need to cry."

This really happened.

When everything was taken - the power, the food, the plan - one little girl refused to curse the darkness. She chose to be light. And her father wrote down every lesson she taught him so she would never forget who she was.

Life Long Lessons is a father's letter to his daughter. A record of the nights they went hungry together. The night she took two bites of Spam and said "Daddy, I'm done eating you can eat now." The quiet moment he whispered, "I love you forever. And even more after that."

You were. You are. And the cup is still refillable.
