Ok so a long story short.
My daughter came home her birthday weekend and I only got to see her for about 8 hours or so. I picked her up from her grandmothers house, I asked so what would you like to do today since we have limited time. As she sat there a second she turns to me and said" dad lets go see that Metallica movie". I said well sure sweetheart but you know your mom cant find out, she said "never dad, you know i wont say anything" (mom=jesus freak). through the entire movie we were both singing along to every song and as i turn and take a glimpse of her every few minutes she had the biggest smile the whole time. As i look back on my life since she was born I see myself in this wonderful 13 year old . Metal has meaning for me in everyday life, and this experience has made it that much more. So my fellow metalheads, Metal means the world to me.........
