If your dad is still alive, this is for you. One day, you’ll bury him. And that’s the day you’ll understand what you really lost. The only man who wanted you to win with no jealousy, no competition, no hidden agenda. He wanted your success more than his own. So while he’s still here… Don’t argue just to win a point. Don’t let ego talk louder than respect. If your pride rises, stay silent. Or walk away. But never disrespect the man who prays for you when you’re not in the room. Call him. Honor him while you can. #FamilyFirst #Respect #Gratitude #baba #sgmm image

Sitting here watching my little boy sleep and thinking about my dad. Look at nostr, here is this. Perfect timing, man. Thanks. Profound and true.

Thank you. My father is turning 80 soon, still at the office daily. I am blessed. My own son is about to turn 18. If I was half as infuriating (I suspect at least double), I need to double down on the respect my father earned 30 years ago.

Just want to say that whilst I’m this guy for my son it’s not a given your dad is like this. But it should be and I wish everyone a dad like this. For me my mom was this person.

He is gone. Waited for me so I could tell him I would take care of all. Answered ok and was gone. Respect.

My dad left way too early, I was 7 at the time. With certainty the most devastating moment in my life to this day. Cherish every instant you have with your parents, and when things turn in the wrong direction, apologize & live onward carrying the cure-all deep inside of you, always, love. ❤️✨

My Dad is my hero and biggest supporter. We don't live close but make lots of efforts to create killer memories every year. Taking him and my mom on an amazing pilgrimage soon to the roots of our faith. View quoted note →

Not in my case! Full of hidden agendas, always playing mind games, and moving goal posts so there was no way to win. I don't know about jealousy, but it seemed like it. There was evidence of competition too. No every parent is a good person. I was quite relieved that I wouldn't have to encounter him when I learned that he died. I knew he would never acknowledge his abusive behavior, unwarranted insults, or blaming me for being related to my mother; much less apologize like the man he taught me to be. Fuck those types of shitbags. Ditch them, and never regret it, as staying in an abusive relationship is self disrespect.

Wish I could call mine. But I buried him a long time ago. Doing origamis with my son ATM. Maybe one day he'll think of this moment with his dad as I think of similar moments with mine.

I think about my dad all the time. How much he would’ve loved bitcoin, Nostr and the state of open source development on these new decentralized rails. Sometimes I can hear his words in my head and happy he lives on through my siblings and I. Still, what I wouldn’t give to hear an original comment that only he could deliver.
