That picture is totally charming, children do like to put on shoes that are huge for them, my nephews used to do it a lot and it was great fun.
Reading these things about you makes me feel in the front row, through your writings and the answers you offer I can feel a good vibe in you and you are an admirable man with a lot to give, I'm sure you would have been a good father. In life not everything goes as we would like, although I don't have children and I decided not to have them and I don't want to, I understand very well those who wanted to and didn't achieve it, as your title says, it was not destined. I am glad to know that you are ok with that and that you can share with your nephews and nieces, love them and be an important figure in their lives.
I guess it's important not to dwell on the things that cannot be, or cannot be changed; doing so may mean life slips by and it's so short I'd rather not let that happen. It's better just to accept it and move on to other things that fulfil life.
Thanks for your kind words, I appreciate them and that you took the time to read my post and comment.
