What’s a mystery from your own life that you’ve never solved? – Asks the daily prompt.

That is a tough one to answer. Quite introspective indeed. As a senior there aren’t many mysteries left if you’re honest with yourself. But if I think hard, there are a few.

The main one is not knowing what traits or attributes that came from my father is a mystery to me. He passed when I was young, so I didn’t really get to know him. In a couple of months, it will be 60 years since I found him slipping away.

Wow, had to pause there for a moment. Still a traumatic experience to remember. Anyway, sometimes you think about how life might have been different if certain events didn’t happen.

I wonder what he would have thought about decisions, careers and family/friends I’ve made.

I mentioned to my better half that I want to get to Arlington this coming weekend or next to visit my parents. His birthday is this month and it’s also the anniversary of my mom passing.
