To my mother, I was everything. To my father, nothing at all. To my grandmother, I was a daily reminder of loves long lost.

About This Quote

The meaning behind this quote is that your mother is everything to you, you are nothing to your father, and your grandmother is a daily reminder of the loves long lost. The idea of being a reminder of something is to have a meaning in life. Being a child who reminds parents of how much they love someone else is a sad fact. This quote shows that you have been chosen by your mother, but your father didn't care about you at all. In the end, neither the father nor the mother cared about you or loved you in any way.
