so, my father, 72 years old, what an age ... even it is mentioned in the bible as a special age ....he passes it even, still healthy, still have 'the wisdom', with all the sensitivity and the stubbornness that come along with it ... (heheheheehehe ... sorry pops) ... I do notice that I inherit some of his character... short temper (occasionally, believe me he is like a vulcan priest most of the times, but just don't get his nerve), dislike of talking in the public place, tendency to stand behind the shadows of someone else, observant, and for sure careful talk ..... but I have to be honest that sometimes I don't really know about his past ... I know his childhood and all the stories about poor and hard life back there at Tapanuli Utara, how he was a hard working kid (and me?? hmmmm ...), how he took the risk to go to Bandung to study, and how he wanted to change his life.... but the strange thing is, I don't really know how was he during his youth, or how he met my mom, or how was his student life.... I know that he was eccentric during his student life, but I know it when I saw one of his friends thesis which acknowledged him as "eccentric batak" .... I know some of his antics from my mom (even recently I know that he is a bit "naughty" as a student .. huahahahahhaha) ....
Happy birthday pops ... I know one of your dreams still unfulfilled until now ... but don't worry .. the time will come, in your time ...
ps. and in the end, this quotes really reflect me the best ....
Fijn weekend ....
