Fathers

I feel fairly blessed that for a period of my life, I was called 'Daddy'. And I admit that I miss it sometimes. They weren't mine but it didn't matter. I know others who were/ are in a comparable situation, and I understand why some of them do it. I did it too. I always tried to be for them what my grandfather was for me. I don't know if I succeeded or not, but I can hope I made a positive difference in the kids' lives.
Wherever he is, I hope you remembered to call your father figure. Or think of him fondly. And remember that for good or bad, he'sprobably got a fair amount to do with the way you are today.
