Unexpected Surprise!

I have found myself writing my thoughts down on occasion. I only write for myself, not for anyone else. I find it helps me understand my feelings. Whether they are good or bad, I always feel better. I have recently found out news that is quite shocking! I cannot believe this! I feel like I am in a nightmare!  I am having trouble figuring out if this nightmare is going to end good or bad.  Just moments ago Mr. Lorry from Tellson’s Bank, informed me that my father has been found and is alive!  After all of these years of being an “orphan” I have a father! Of course this is great news that my father is alive, but it is almost too good to be true..  Why didn’t he show up earlier in my life?  Where has he been for the past eighteen years?  I have so many questions that are running around in my head!  My immediate reaction to Mr. Lorry’s news was that he was taking me to see my father’s ghost.  It was just so sudden and out of the blue!  I was in shock and frightened.  I had no idea what to do or say to this life changing news, so I stayed silent with a cold white blank stare on my face.  I am still unsure of what to think about this news, but I have better come to my senses quickly.  

Mr. Lorry is taking me to see my father today!  I am so nervous and have butterflies in my stomach.  I have no idea what to expect and can only pray for the best.
