Your memories of who your father was will change over time.
My father is no longer with me, but memories are always there.
My father was always there. He was always there for me.
That is the important thing, for me, to remember.
In doing so, by being there, my father taught me to always be there for my daughter.
It is the biggest lesson I have ever learned.
It is the greatest friendship I will ever possess.
Always a father, and always a friend.
Today I am reminded.
