Good story. There's a social expectation for men, especially in previous generations, not to speak about their feelings, but it's always nice to hear how they escape anyway through actions, whether by leaving the quarters in the chair or by getting those goblins. I know that's not the point of your story, but that's what I take from it

to be honest was expecting a very different kind of blog entry, maybe about that story you told me about last night roflrofl but this was a pleasant surprise. those subtle, yet everlasting lessons you learn really stick with you forever. i'm glad that despite his scariness he showed his compassion through the coin-slipping/goblins... he may not have been the most affectionate with words but i def think actions > words and he def showed that through his own gruff ways. <3 rip to him~

I wish I got to see my grandparents more. Unfortunately, they're on the other side of the world

I miss them dearly, though... stupid onions

Great blog. 5/5

I'm positive if I tried to tell a story about family it wouldn't read this good.
