Love covers

A man lost his job, started drinking, his wife left him with their only son. He became a drunkard, was a terrible dad if any at all, and ended his life alone and miserable.

The son, however, grew up to be all the contrary : kind, loving and responsible, passionate about life.

When he was asked how he had turned out so well given all the personnal things he went through, he said : up until I was 18, every night, my dad came to my room when I went to bed, and told me he loved me.

Love covers all the screw-ups.
