My Father
When I think of my father, there's only one thing that comes to mind: The Cubs. That's something he can talk about for hours on end. His entire living room is decorated in Cubs merchandise, most of his clothes have the Cubs logo on it, and every Christmas he will undoubtedly receive something that has anything to do with the infamous team. I remember one night, when I was maybe seven years old, the Cubs won an important game and my dad was ecstatic. He took the Cubs flag that he has hanging on his living room wall and began swaying it side to side while singing "Go Cubs Go". I had never seen such pride in his eyes. The sheer joy that he had for his team at that moment was unforgettable. Unfortunately, I do not share his passion for The Cubs because I do not care about sports in the slightest. Starting in fourth grade, I found my life path through music and teaching instead of ball throwing and dirty gym socks. However, sometimes I wish I could find it in myself to love The Cubs just as much as he does. I always wonder how different our relationship might be if I shared that interest with him since it is so prominent in his life.
