My Dad Doesn’t Say Much These Days—But Last Week He Looked At Me And Said Something He Hasn’t In Years

And maybe… say something back. Even if it’s just, “Thanks for the leftover ham.”

Because love doesn’t always sound like music.

Sometimes, it sounds like a wrench in a drawer, or slippers on tile, or a soft chuckle at a bad joke.

And that’s enough.

If this story reminded you of someone, give it a like and share it with someone who needs to hear it.
Maybe your own quiet hero is still waiting for you to say, “I see you. And I love you too.”
