This post stems from a lunchtime chat I had earlier today... As some of you may know, my Dad has had a rough go at life. After riding a bit of a rollercoaster relationship with him, I can definitely say that I'm the person I am today not despite him...but because of him. His ability now to see everything simply and for what it "bare bones" is keeps me very much grounded in my life. He strips away the unneeded and bothersome thoughts that I often get wrapped up in.
He has also given me a sense of empathy, understanding, and the "I can conquer the world" attitude that sometimes rears its head in random unusual ways. Thanks Dad for believing and we'll hit up our usual brunch haunt when I get back for some Australia and Kite Runner reconnaisance reporting.
