Just wanted to wish my dad a Happy Father's Day although I know he'll never come across this blog but at least everyone else will know how I feel about him.
I love him. Simply put.
Despite all the shit that we've gone through, especially in the past year... my love for him will always sbe there. I try not to take the time we have together for granted. And I know when I ask for something and he says 'no', he's just doing what he thinks is best for me.
So I'm glad to have someone in my life who is still 'protective' of me no matter how much I complain about not having any freedom hehe
I wrote a piece about him on one of my old blogs (the site no longer exists -- sorry!).. appropriately titled 'Father'. It was a bit negative, but after writing it, things started getting better between us so I'm glad I got my thoughts out and wrote it at the time that I did.
And although he may not know it... when my parents get invited to a wedding and my mum can't make it, I'll volunteer to go with him because I want to. Getting dressed up is only the small part about it. I never know the couple getting married but I like just spending that daddy-daughter time with him. We joke around and talk about stuff that I would never usually talk to him about - even at home when the rest of the family is present. Kinda wierd but that's the way it's always been.
I've never been close to my family.
On the outside, it's all a facade.
Inside the house, there are so many layers that no-one knows about.
Give your dad a hug today and tell him you love him yo! :)
Peace.
