Today is my Lolo's 6th year death anniversary. I miss the smell of car oil and sweat.
He always had a way of making me feel invincible. 50% of my qualities (the good ones anyway, lol) is 100% of what he was. The other 50% is my mom and friends. Stubborn is just a Carter thing, its in our genes. lol
I could never fully emulate him well enough to show people what kind of legacy he left behind. He never had to tell me how to treat people or how i should carry myself, it was something you just watched and admired. He worked hard and thats the reason he died the way he did. Words wouldn't be enough to explain how much he was so amazing, its something you feel. As forgetful as i may be, my memory of him would never be erased. We are products of our environments and i am home grown to the bone.
Just thinking about him still makes me cry. I try not to think about him to much because of that fact.
Life would be so much simplier if he was still around.
My filipino Indiana Jones =(
