The Cozy Corner

I had the same relationship with my dad. Still quote his wisdom regularly. ❤️
That's awesome! 🩷 I quote my father regularly. It's not always wisdom. But it's most often funny 🤣😉
I lost my mother in my teens. I have amazing memories of her music performance, of her sewing and cooking abilities of her wisdom, and her fierce protection of her family. She taught me how to treat a woman; often using her own negative experiences as life lessons. She would make me take her out on a date and explain all the things a gentleman does and does not do. She taught me which fork to use first in a formal setting, and why we stop to listen to the world around us, and to appreciate beautiful things.

Two bits of her wisdom:

1. Never inquire about a lady's age, weight, gestational status, or contents of her purse.

2. Young man, if a person is born female, they may be a girl or a woman by age but titles like lady or bitch are earned!
I'm sorry to hear about you losing your mother so young but it seems like she impressed a lifetime of life lessons upon you. I do agree with the bits of wisdom you shared! 🩷

Daddy was humor mixed with deadly serious. I am just sorry he passed without really ever telling me about his experiences during the Korean war.

That would have been amazing if he had been able to share his experiences from being deployed overseas with you. I'm sorry you never had that opportunity.
 
I can understand that and how it might be memories that are difficult to relive or share with others
Yes. Even when I was on jump status we rarely talked with non-jumpers about the danger, the fear we dealt with. That was reserved for our jump buddies so I do understand it.
