Expression of love Quote by Brett Douglas
““Being a product of Bea and Jack, he is the antithesis of Mom. I don’t mean he doesn’t love me, rather his expression of love, acceptance, and even his presence in my life is as conditional as Mom’s love is unconditional. He has an unwavering opinion of right and wrong, success and failure, and how a man should behave. This belief is so rigid, I’ve always felt I wasn’t the type of person he wanted as a son. To””
