I had to read this post more than once to be sure it wasn't really actually your story because it felt real. You entered the shoes of that person and literally brought me with you.

You are right the love of a father can not be less appreciated or even contented with. A little kid at a tender age sees his father as his super hero , his knight in shining armor and immediately he starts to feel or sense hostility, hatred, lack of love and so on, that child starts to retire to himself, hide from the world, become broken and that leads us to cause and effect.

As a little kid growing up I used to fear my father, his anger issues got the better of him and whenever he was drunk he ended up staying hurtful things, doing hurtful things that actually almost created a wall between us. I could hardly tell him anything, as a young man growing I could hardly ask him anything about what was happening to my hormones. I just kept to myself and he started to call me weak, unproductive, lazy, then there was too many comparison with other kids. It really killed my self esteem, made me less confident, outspoken and a lot of opportunities passed me by.

I can't believe we would be talking father , child love with a word such as casuality. You really nailed it like I knew you would.

Goodluck on the contest. I hope you win ❤️😌
