Lori Hoxha's letter to her father, 16 years after his death
Lori Hoxha's letter
To Dad, on the anniversary of his passing. I wrote to Sara in the morning that I feel guilty that I am not more sad about your departure, guilty that perhaps the space between the moments when I remember you will be longer as more years pass.
And while I was writing, my eyes filled with tears and my chest filled with longing. In fact, what I believe has happened is that I no longer allow the love for you, unused and unforgiven, to break my soul, but I take it where you want us all to take the love for you, to the family and Top Channel.
You deserve to live longer and enjoy every memory with us, but as we like to say sometimes for the sake of the unchangeable, it is that you went uphill without ever seeing the top or the bottom.
Maybe I wouldn't have become what I am if you had accompanied me for the last 16 years, and yet I would choose that path every time. Keep giving me signs. I see and follow you, and the more I work for your dreams, the more I feel close to you.
