I think I can find some common ground with your friend there that doesn't post often. I went through a long time where I wouldn't really post much but I was always in the comments and engaging. Those are good times indeed so it's great to have people like that to chat with!
Sorry to hear about your dad but I think it would be very special to enjoy some time with him, those are important moments I wish you could get back!
Its really nice to engage with other people's post, it gives room to know more about what the post is about. Are you back on posting now?
Thanks for the kinds words towards my dad.
