The Force of the Father

December 2017

A young heart fell in love with you first. Your loving presence acknowledged her existence as you, father, in feminine form. You were mindful not to be the first to break her young heart in word or deed, that she should not wage a bitter war with your tribe as woman. The challenge for us is to find a way to give what we ourselves did not receive. We must find a way.
