“What’s wrong doggy? You don’t like the Big Bang? That’s what it’s called right? The Big Bang in London?”

I’ve been struggling with a few aspects in my life, and recently my Dad has been reaching out to bridge the cultural/generation gap. He started to learn how to text and I received a text that read exactly:

“U mom get job anne u is my hope what even do not worry keep happy everydays keep eye on he farway what even u want i am support”

Another night, my dad saw me walking to my car at midnight and thought I was sneaking out when I was only trying to get baseball tickets from a friend. He decided to come with me and then shared his philosophy on life:

“Bitter first, sweet later. Cannot run away!”

I love my dad!
