Howvr, I would lik to mntion that fly fishing isnt all youv crackd it up to b, Dad. You can say what you want about wrist action and stanc and blah, blah, blah...

Iv bn happily drifting for a lot of yars, Dad, and I didnt s you gtting oldr.

I suppos I saw us and our rlationship as aging togthr, rathr lik a fin win. Numbrs nvr smd important. But th oddst thing happnd last wk. I was at a stop sign and I watchd as you turnd th cornr in your car. It didnt immdiatly occur to m that it was you bcaus th man driving lookd so ldrly and fragil bhind th whl of that hug car. It was rathr lik a slap in th fac dlivrd from out of nowhr. Prhaps I saw your ag for th first tim that day. Or mayb I saw my own.

就是如许，您我之间的代沟渐渐消掉了。如今岁数和其它一些问题的差别把您和我分隔隔离涣散，可我们在很多工作的上的见解都是一样的，这多是因为我们晓畅了没有那么多的工作值得我们辩论吧。但是，我想提示一下的是，爸爸，飞蝇垂纶是您最喜好的一种钓法，您可以说些您想做的手段动作，站姿和一些没有效的话甚么的。

爸爸，固然我已漂流很多年了，然则我很康乐。但是，我却发现您没有变老，照样那么年青。

跟着岁数的促进，我认和我之间的关系渐渐地和谐了很多多少，就像是一瓶好酒，越陈越喷鼻。家人看起来仿佛没有一点意义似的，然则，上周产生了一件最新奇的工作，我站在泊车标记旁，看见您开着车要拐弯。可是我并没有立时反应到那是爸爸您。因为那小我开着车，又在那部大年夜车的车轮后面，就显得他岁数很大年夜，身体也很衰弱的模样。可我却感应不知道从哪里飞来的一记耳光似的重重地打在我的脸上，或许，那是我第一次看见您的岁数，或许，只有我本身看见罢了。
