What I never told my father

Article Abstract:

A woman whose father was emotionally distant and strict has developed ambivalent feelings for him. On the occasion of Father's Day she remembers him as a man who could provide her a sense of completeness even though he had some difficulty expressing himself and that, over time, she has ceased to be frightened by him.
