Before becoming parents, what most folks don't realize is that your firstborn is where you learn hands on to be a parent by fire. I am the result of my parents training season.
♫ Back when I was a child...Before life removed all the innocence...My father would lift me high and dance with my mother and me and then spin me around till I fell asleep. Then up the stairs he would carry me, and I knew for sure I was loved! If I could get another chance, another walk, another dance with him, I'd play a song that would never ever end. How I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again... ♫ - Luther Vandross
♫ When I and my mother would disagree to get my way I would run from her to him. He'd make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah, yeah, then finally make me do just what my momma said. Later that night when I was asleep, he left a dollar under my sheet...Never dreamed that he would be gone from me. If I could steal one final glance, one final step, one final dance with him I'd play a song that would never ever end. 'Cause I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again. ♫ - Luther Vandross
Wow!!! It's been FIVE years!!! Five years since you took your final journey and transitioned from life here on earth. I miss you everyday dad!
You gave me more of you than anyone even realizes.
My love for architecture. (I read blueprints for fun)
My love for building things with my own hands. (The dart gun we made from wood using plans you drew up on scrap paper.)
My love for NUMB3RS ie. y = \beta_0 + \beta_1 x + \epsilon
We were Fast & Furious...My love of motorcycles and fast cars - NASCAR racing to be exact (We never made it to Daytona) LOL see what I did there dad?
Both of us child prodigies!!! LOL This nerdy shit runs deep in our family!
My love for all genres of music and dancing.
My love for playing sports, soccer, cricket, tennis, ping-pong, handball, basketball, baseball and track. I hated being on the track team in prep school until you made it make sense to me.
You were my muse and encouraged all the design work I have done in SL even though you've never actually seen SL.
the list goes on and on...
We always discussed the trajectory of my career goals and I discussed with you my list and you nudged me to add some other goals that I was apprehensive about. Since you left I have been working tirelessly at accomplishing all of those goals and others. At the end of the summer I will be pursuing another one of my educational goals when I begin classes at New York Film Academy. I keep hearing your words, "go after your goals unapologetically...fuck what everyone else thinks." ♫ I've come a long way from where we began, and I'll tell you all about it when I see you again. ♫
Recap: Five years ago today on Monday April 3, 2017 at 9:32PM eastern time while laughing with my favorite cousin I got the phone call that has forever broken my heart and taken some of my smiles away! "Bwoy Em mi a tell yuh, mi get a call, yuh fatha dead!"
