Today is the 23rd Death Anniversary of my father. He died when I was 5 years old. I understand, after 23 years, why he left, he wants us to be independent, he wants to stand on our own, everything happened with a purpose....
"Sometimes you have to be apart from the people you love, but that doesn't make you love them any less. Sometimes it makes you love them more." Steve Miller (Greg Kinnear ), From 2010 movie, The Last Song
The strongest man I ever knew
I never was a match for you
always wanted your attention
never knew just how to get it, so I rebelled
tried to be your opposite, I did it well,
strange but true, how our lives are like a circle now
I’m so very much like you
—from Dan Hill’s song “My Father’s Son”
I'm very sorry to read that, it sounds like you've come to terms with it(?) I lost mine at 2-years-old, I know it's difficult. Beautiful selective colouring.
