She's several thousand miles away now and the distance is getting longer and longer each passing minute. You don't know loneliness until you've said goodbye to your daughter at the airport, knowing you won;t see her again for 3 months. Your heart breaks when she disappears through customs checkpoint and you struggle to choke back the tears.

why do fathers love their daughters so much? Why do they tear your heart strings? God, I miss you, sweetheart. The drive home from the airport was a nightmare because of the tears in my eyes, yet you implored me not to cry in front of people when you left for the plane. But how could I not? You're the most precious thing in the world to me. When I go to sleep tonight, I'll walk past your bedroom and see that empty bed of yours and curse our luck, why do you have to go away all the time? By the time I wake up, you'll be back home and resting getting ready to go back to school the next day , and I won;t be there to help you. I won;t be there to help you get your clothes and books and things together, and make your breakfast and kiss your forehead as you walk out the door to catch the bus. And I won;t be there when you come home at night and give you a cuddle as we have done for so many years. I know we can talk over th internet, but it;s not the same as seeing that sweet smile and that lovely "hi daddy" and the other little interaction things that we love so much. I love you, my precious little girl.

Ha, Kung, love to be your bodyguard, but I've been in love with my daughter for 14 years, -- and now I'm getting completely drunk - but thanks for being so funny -- I need it at the moment -- take care -- you're a special lady.

Dex.
