It's twisted...what he did. His mind. Demented. Warped by greed, selfishness, abusiveness, money, and sins of the flesh. I would never want to understand him. Forgive? I can only let go. Let God deal him his sentence and I pray He will show my father the error of his ways.Angelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03067404434558213335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4461625697375855186.post-9387781759120635012010-06-29T23:54:13.072-07:002010-06-29T23:54:13.072-07:00I'm so glad you agree and understand where I&#...I'm so glad you agree and understand where I'm coming from.

It's easy to...I agree with you whole-heartedly. It's easy to point the finger at the man who was so distant, who made me feel like I had to force my affections on him to get him to hug me back, and I was always the one who said "I love you" first to him. And whenever I call home, and if he answers, our conversations are short, stilted, and he can't wait to pass the phone to another family member. But he still talks to me and asks me how I am. Do I need money. How's my back. Etc.<br /><br />He did all those things for me, too. Sent me money when I was in dire straits. Made me milo. Even renovated the house partly and built an extra room so I could move back home.<br /><br />So he's not perfect. So he's not always around when we feel we need him to be. But he never beat my mum, even if they don't really get along these days. He always gives her money when she demands it.<br /><br />However, I do believe I harbour Daddy issues when it comes to men, but as long as I am aware of it and not blaming him, I can actively overcome it and progress out of it. My dad came from that generation of men that you described in your post. We live and learn from the past.Nayamaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02601360321334213638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4461625697375855186.post-50609161392117989692010-06-24T00:40:33.968-07:002010-06-24T00:40:33.968-07:00I think it's a dad's thing.. the making Mi...I think it's a dad's thing.. the making Milo part.
