I think in any father-son relationship, there's going to be times you say, 'Well, the apple didn't fall far from the tree.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Anyone who reads my work will see that there are often difficult relationships between fathers and sons.
It is remarkable how closely the history of the apple tree is connected with that of man.
If the relationship of father to son could really be reduced to biology, the whole earth would blaze with the glory of fathers and sons.
A father-son relationship is strong, like no other teammates. You could be straightforward with one another.
With sons and fathers, there's an inexplicable connection and imprint that your father leaves on you.
Sometimes the father feels pushed out because of the connection between the mother and the child.
I think my father was somewhat disappointed in not having had a son, and in that way I was the nearest thing he had.
The son has always felt like he was a footnote in one of the stories the father tells. The father is an amazing storyteller and one of the tales that he tells is how he met his wife.
The apple cannot be stuck back on the Tree of Knowledge; once we begin to see, we are doomed and challenged to seek the strength to see more, not less.
The relationship between parents and children, but especially between mothers and daughters, is tremendously powerful, scarcely to be comprehended in any rational way.
