Have you even smelled your father carefully? Do you think that father’s smell is terrible? Unless your father is the fashion businessman or the high class gentlemen, who put on the eau de cologne all day long, otherwise, you could smell the fragrance from his working place. The way your father is smelled is the way he earns for your bread.
When I was a little kid, I hate the way my father is smelled. As he was a fixer, everyday he rolled in the pile of cars and then you could smell gas from him 20 or30 inches away. I hated seeing him in any public places. When I was a little boy in the kindergarten, I thought my father was the greatest man in this world; he could fix the car, the huge vehicles. But then when I went to the primary school, I found that the smell from my father’s body was terrible and I did not want him to attend any activities in my school. It was all about the psychological, I felt that even the rubber wristbands my father wore would have the same smell as his, the gas. Then one day my father found that so he let my mother to attend these activities and he just kept busy every day. I did not know how much a son’s hate could hurt his father, but I did find out that my father became more silent from then on.
Then as I went to college and lived far away from my hometown, I did not have much chance to talk with my father. Every holiday I went back home and felt like my father was totally a stranger to me. I knew I did something wrong and bad, but I just do not know how to apologize to my father. I do not know how to tell him how much I love him.

Thank you so much for the review, Craig. You really captured the spirit of the site. I have both public and private accounts (sometimes it's nice to keep a private list just for yourself) but browsing through the public "stream of thanks" is what makes it so special. If you come into the site and can't think of anything to be thankful for, just browse the stream and you should be able to think of something pretty quickly!

We're excited about our growing community and are looking forward to the new features we'll be adding in soon - lots of good stuff to come.

Cheers!
Jen
