Ariadne Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 Ha ha! Yes, sometimes too much of the same thing can be lethal. No, the opposite you'd say. I can't stand being controlled by anybody.
happy girl Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 From the time I was really young, I remember my dad always being kind. He loved giving lectures to me and all of my friends. My friends and my brothers' friends all thought of our dad as a second father to them. He once drove 1 1/2 hourse to pick up one of my brother's friends just so they could spend the day at a theme park together. Another time, my car broke down while I was taking a friend back to college which was an hour away, my dad picked us up and took my friend back to school for me. He was also very understanding and never told us what to do. He gave us room to learn from our own mistakes. He was very strong and could somehow figure out most anything. He worked on heavy machinery and moved it quite often. One thing that was really difficult to see was when his cancer moved to his bones and he couldn't even sit up in bed without help. Even with cancer, he was still more concerned with everyone else's happiness and well-being than he was with himself. I am a lot like my father as well. He used to call and want my mom to find something for him and when she couldn't, he said to ask me because we were so much alike and I knew how his mind worked. He was by far the best dad in the world! I have been blessed beyond a doubt. Thank you God for all the wonderful years I spent with such a loving and involved father!
