Fathers and sons have an interesting dynamic. When we're very young we want to be just like our father's. Then our greatest struggle for autonomy is defining how we're different. And at the end of our live's we realize we're a lot more like them than we ever thought. Being appreciative of that defines how well you really like yourself, and not your father.
