Story of My Feelings

It is an often encountered theory that we will either become one our parents or we will marry someone "just like them," i.e., marrying your father or mother. I have had the unique opportunity to see this evolve in front of me. I've observed for many years the similarities between my wife and her mother, so much so, that the imprint of mother upon the daughter is undeniable. Now I've begun to see another undeniable trend, the imprint of my wife upon her daughters. I try to remain impartial to this observation, but it is complex. Unfortunately I find myself responding negatively to some of my daughters behavior because of the issues I have with their mother about similar behavior.

Less than a mile away from our house
A man was chased down in the street
And then murdered with over 40 shots from an AK-47
Yes life goes on, yeah traffic was a mess
but nothing else registers
One person's normal is another person's nightmare.
