My father looks at me the way he is looking at my mother in one of their wedding pictures: like he can't believe that she is with him now and will be with him forever, that she has chosen to be with him out of all the men in the known world. Francisco X. Stork
About This Quote

My father looks at me the way he is looking at my mother in one of their wedding pictures: like he can't believe that she is with him now and will be with him forever, that she has chosen to be with him out of all the men in the known world. The quote speaks of the idea that some people are so close to others that they can see their souls. I’m not sure if this is true of every parent, but I feel it is true for many parents who have children who are very close to them. One of my closest friends has a parent who he can see his own soul mirrored in her. There are some things that only another soul will ever fully understand, and I know that this friend's parent can speak to these things.
