Its Not All About The Mother

My Dad
Will always answer a question when asked directly

My Dad
Doesnt judge, no of course he does, but by his standards and I mostly align with those

My Dad
Is adventurous, open minded, curious, he likes people and beer and fun

My Dad
Can make anything out of nothing. He really can. He taught me.

But if a therapist had to pin point any searching for the Father Figure
It is the search for the Eternal Optimist that is my Dad

Divorced, bancrupt, in prison, impoverished, lost a son.
He smiles from within still and always.

He must be the one who gave me that middle name-
Hope I think it was.
