Ok that was a bit of a more challenge than my own, posts like this make me see the bright sides of my own upbringing. The post made me think of what I could say about my own father, who's 83 now and still kicking, but obviously we're thinking about when he goes. It's really hard to find something positive to say of a man who clearly was autistic, but raised at a time and in a place where any type of psychoanalysis and self-improvement was considered alien, or even blasphemous. It's even more complicated when you and your siblings see yourselves in that man. But after all he was a man who in spite of a handicap that left him limping his entire life, he escaped communist jugoslavia by stealing his brother's bike, survived the refugee barracks and a murder attempt, started his own business, bought a house for his family, and started a legacy in a new country. He will hopefully be missed by 4 children, and 5 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren, so far, and numerous other relatives in many different countries. |
