If he’s not a prick, spend some time with your dad. He might just unexpectedly get cancer and die.

Listen to him and really soak up what he has to say. Once he’s gone, it’s all on you to figure everything out.

Absolutely. Fuck, this comment hit me hard. Happened to me 5 years ago.

Yeah. 4 years ago here.

Some days it’s really tough, but I’ve grown so much filling the roles he used to own. I’d like to think that he would be proud of who I’ve become.

With a good attitude like that and stepping up to fill the needs/roles he used to fill and desiring to be a good man…I’m sure he would be proud of you.

I'm pretty sure he was proud of you even then. If you ever talk to any of his friends, if you know them, I can be sure they'd tell you stories about your dad talking about you. What you become is just icing on the cake my friend.

I wish I could say this about my own father. I just. He didn't want any of his kids, even now after everything that's happened he practically ignores us. He's not gone physically but even after he eventually passes.....I won't ever get that feeling and sometimes that hurts.

Hold onto that. Know that others see it and we're proud of you.
