I’ve just discovered your Substack, and I’m catching up now, reading this – such a beautiful, poignant essay. 💗

And I can so relate, my dad would be exactly the same about telling me off for sharing our stories, sure that no one would be interested! 😂 Absolutely loved this.

I love how you wrote your Dad was your search engine google long before it existed! Mine still is and I know how lucky I am to spending the day with my dad tomorrow. Your post made me feel and cry - the goal of any writing right? Thanks for sharing.
