A Father's Concern

She comes running to you and says "I've found him!! I have found my prince!!! He's amazing, sweet and he loves me!!!!" You ask her all about him, and she gladly tells all.

You watch her get close to him and are happy that they are happy. But you also are worried he will brake her heart after all this is her first love.

Then comes the day when she runs to you saying "It's over! It's over and I never saw it coming!" You try your best to comfort her . Telling her that it is his lost, not hers. But deep down inside you know the words you say to her she won't realize that they are true until later. All you want to do is to erase the pain you see in her. You also want to yell at him who caused her the pain asking how could you do this to her?! But you know this won't help her.

You don't know how to help her so you just sit there by her side and are there for her as best as you can be. Because it hurts you to see her hurting like this and you know you can't do a thing about it. You pray late at night asking for healing for her. She tells you she can't and won't be able to love another person, but you know that's not true.

You hope the next time she comes running to you to tell you all about him. That this is the one and the one to stay.
