My father passed away almost 10 years ago now. I continue to learn something new about the mysterious man that he was even to this day without trying. Mostly bad, some good.
The good ones though few will never outweigh the bad but I can and still am proud of him for them.
Brave girl. Hope my kids think like you x❤🇬🇧🚒😎

... and that's why you're such a badass 😎
We can spend our entire lives railing against our parents' choices, but it doesn't help. Your attitude is incredibly freeing.
🙏🏻 It took a long time to free myself of the heaviness of who he was. I just know I have to become my own person moreso from knowing who I dont want to become.
My dad passed five years ago. There are many things about him I admire and many which I really don't.
In any case I know what he was up against in his own and he did his best given the circumstances, however flawed that may have been. The forgiveness process is continuous, but the love has always been there.
I don't know anything about your life or your dad. It sounds like the dynamic with him was very different than mine. I just wanted to say I respect you for sharing your process.
