Turning point

Me and my dad used to talk a lot. Our mundane conversations are something that I held close to my heart. He used to tell me that there will come a time in everyone’s life where there is a turning point. When life seems to go as plan, something will happen that change your life course entirely. And it doesn’t have to be a bad thing.

For him it was quitting his white collar job to start his own business. Doing something he loved.

I always thought mine would be something similar.

It never occured to me that losing him is my turning point.
