Family

It's not that I hate not having a dad, it's that I've never had someone be proud of me. I've never had a father to help me through life. I've never had a dad to convince me everything will be fine. I've never had a dad to encourage me to meet new friends or help with homework. I've never had a father that cared about me.

When I see parents with their children, I think, why couldn't I have that? What did I do to deserve this?

I never had a mother that loved me or one that looked out for me.

I grew up with two sisters 11 years older than me. One taught me about the world and the other taught me to fear it.

On the flip side, if you pretend that it was your choice to be raised without a father, what do you think the lesson would be in your lifetime? Big picture question, and yes it can take years to answer... but I find peace when I do this exercise.
