Para11 I now know he participated in some things through me, his only son. When I played ball (poorly), he played too. When I joined the Navy, he joined too. And when I came home on leave, he saw to it that I visited his office. Introducing me, he was really saying, This is my son, but it is also me, and I could have done this, too, if things had been different. Those words were never said aloud. Para12 He has been gone many years now, but I think of him often. I wonder if he sensed my reluctance to be seen with him during our walks. If he did, I am sorry I never told him how sorry I was, how unworthy I was, how I regretted it. I think of him when I complain about trifles, when I am envious of anothers good fortune, when I dont have a good heart. Para13 At such times I put my hand on his arm to regain my balance, and say, You set the pace. I will try to adjust to you.
