Phillip Toledano - Days with My Father

Phillip Toledano - Days with My Father (Click on the bottom of each picture to move to the next one)

Via Faisal.

This touches me deeply. My father died 1992, and I wish I had some similar sort of time with him in his last days. I hadn’t, because we were angry and disappointed with each other. We were fools.

He loved his collection of watches and his Mercedes Benz S Class, his business, his suits, his Mont Blanc pens, his Sundays at the horse races, his meetings with business ‘friends’ and his all-over luxury. I would have loved a single sentence by him like “I’m proud of you my son, for what you are and what you are not”, but all I ever heard was “you’re not good enough”.

I’m 35 years old, and I look exactly like him when he was 35. This is all we ever shared and all we share now.
