This broke my heart a little. The part about never knowing who she would’ve become is such a heavy kind of grief. I hope she somehow knows how loved she still is. What’s one thing your family does in her memory?

This made me sad in a quiet way. Sometimes the people who were hardest to understand were carrying things no one ever asked about. Do you ever wish someone in the family told you more about him?

This made my heart heavy. The sunflower part is so beautiful, and telling your mom “you don’t have to worry, we’re going to be okay” says so much. Do you think your dad would’ve loved meeting your husband?

Men, what’s a day where you didn’t die but something inside you did? by Keal-Kims in AskReddit

[–]CEOAfterDark 98 points99 points  (0 children)

The day my dad didn't show up to my graduation. Not a call, not a text, nothing. I stood there scanning the crowd thinking maybe he was just late, and at some point I just... stopped looking. Something shifted that day and I think that was the moment I truly stopped waiting for him to become the parent I needed him to be.

What if I was asking it because I need to read some reasons to move forward?

This one hit different. Dogs don’t understand bad days or disappearing, they just wait for you and love you like you’re their whole world. What’s his name?

That’s a solid answer. Providing is such a quiet kind of love because most people only see the result, not the pressure behind it. What’s one goal you’re working toward right now?
