Tomorrow would be my dad’s 73rd birthday, were he alive. I reckon Jeremiah and Matthew would have overtaken him soon in terms of height (and weight too).
The Trunojoyo household has certainly missing the presence of a man of the house. Dad wasn’t an imposing figure in the house, however I think people in the house were quite respectful of him and his decision. Since him passing, I don’t think mum was able to take that mantle.
In some way, perhaps he was the only person that mom really listens to. After him gone, his voice is now replaced by many other voices and influences – but none that is life guiding, yes she needs Jesus.
Can’t think of any memory that I haven’t written down.. Was he an angry person? No, not really – he was very scary when he was angry though. I can count with my fingers how many time he was angry with me. I was quite trying in my teenage years.
Oh music! I didn’t know when I started to have the courage to change the radio station when we’re in the car. But I usually change it to rock or pop station, which I know it’s not his cup of tea. But he let me do it. And sometimes he even changed the radio to my fav station (is that really happen or me imagining it?).
Anyway, I don’t think we have anything in common in terms of music… In this area, me and my boys are better I guess, I do try introduce them to music I like.
