Now, at 20, she and I are wicked tight. She gave me all kindsa props on a phone call to my mother apparently and that was . . wonderful.
My pop passed when I was 17. He was . . difficult. I know that, at the end of his life, he knew I loved and accepted him, that's a mitzvah.
I've gone through life seeking surrogate fathers and mentors.

I went through a similar period of difficulty with my mother, I think because we are similarly bullheaded. But once I got out of my teenage years we are now really close. It's really awesome to be able to count a parent as a friend. Thumbs up!
