I have an evolving relationship with my father, and his memory, especially the older I get. I know that some of the things that interested him are things that interest me.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My father is a very hardworking guy, and that's his focus in life, so I got a lot of the paternal attention that a boy wants and needs from my grandfather.
Relationships with parents, grandparents, friends, and siblings were important to me when I was young and have remained so throughout my life. Our relationships with other people both shape and reflect who we are. These relationships are infinitely fascinating to explore!
A large part of my life revolves around my dad. Sometimes, I even feel a strong sense of connection, something very tangible when I learn something new in the martial arts.
My memories from my childhood are centered on my father's medical conditions alongside my constant desire to understand the principles of the nature around me.
My father was always getting excited about something. It's genetically inside me somewhere.
My mother says that my father truly enjoyed having a son. My two-years-younger twin sisters felt that he didn't quite know how to enjoy them. But I wasn't aware of those things then. So many of my childhood memories involve him. All the excursions into science were shaped by his knowledge and enthusiasm.
While we share the same set of values, we can - and do - have different business interests. Dad has been there to give me career advice along the way, but he has always let me call the play.
I love my dad and we have a very good relationship now.
My relationship with my father is pretty non-existent.
I think a lot of a man's outlook in life - at least mine - is shaped by his relationship with his father.
