What age were you when you realized what BAR stood for? What age were you when you realized what DAD stood for? At 5, he was the big, tall scary guy that did stuff around the house and yelled at us sometimes
At 10, he was the guy that coached me through all my sports and yelled at me for bad grades
At 16, he was the guy that taught me how to drive and start to see the world through other peoples eyes
At 18, he was the guy that taught me to not believe everybody's lies
At 22, he was the guy that supported me through it all.
Spring, Summer, Winter and Fall.
At 31, he was the guy that could still pick me up
After I looked like i wasn't standing as tall
But through my entire life
He stood for what was right.
Sometimes it takes a lifetime to figure out what something means.
And I still believe my irish heritage has taught me Whether its a pub or bar
Those places still stand to give you somewhere to think
And appreciate what it all means.
