is there such a thing? i remember growing up, i used to think that my dad used to work way too hard, but now that i look at myself, i see that in my professional career, i’ve clocked in some pretty crazy hours myself. i never thought that i would end up like that. i never really wanted to be like that, so i’m not sure how it is that it turned out like that. it’s funny how things work out.

so it makes me wonder if we have some kind of predisposition to be like our parents, even if we didn’t really want to be like that. they say that there are patterns that people follow. that is, if you were in a household where the father figure was abusive, you may turn out to be abusive or take abuse and think it’s ok.

i wonder just how true that is.
