One day in the fall of 2010 he was wistfully going through a box of old snapshots with me, and paused over one that showed him visiting Lisa when she was young. "I probably didn't go over there enough," he said. Since he had not spoken to her all that year, I asked if he might want to reach out to her with a call or email. He looked at me blankly for a moment, then went back to riffling through other old photographs.
In the fall of 2010, a reflective moment unfolded as he went through old photographs, sparking memories of visits to Lisa during her childhood. He expressed a sense of regret, noting that he hadn't spent enough time with her, highlighting the emotional weight of those memories. This moment emphasized the complexities of his relationship with his daughter.
When I suggested that he reach out to her after a year of silence, he seemed momentarily taken aback, indicating a disconnect between his feelings and actions. He chose to continue browsing through photographs rather than respond, underscoring his struggle with personal connections amid his busy life.
