What Do You Miss Doing?


Recommended Posts

I miss my Dad...
Back then, I would be assigned to pull out my father’s white hairs, a growing army of white beginning to invade his otherwise black mass of hair. My father and I sat under the dapple of leaves. I pulled out his hairs with a tiani (tweezer), ten centavos for five white hairs. Business was brisk, and ten centavos in the late 70s was enough to buy two caramel tarts, or one Chocnut, or one big rectangle of chicharon (pig crackling). Fifteen white hairs meant a cold bottle of Coke
Those days passed in a blaze of happiness, and sometimes I wonder why the present is always less happy than those days of yore...
