4D II – Silent Love

in my previous post on characterization, i’ve picked Jamie Oliver and My Dad as my 2 characters. but upon much consideration, i’ve decided to change them to My Dad and I.

as mentioned in my previous post on my dad, the love my dad shows is selfless and unconditional. he is a person who gives more than receive, which is something i admire about him.

but the funny thing about the love relationship between my dad and i is that we never express them loudly. we hardly open up to one another, but we express our appreciation through little acts of kindness. you could call it Silent Love.

just like my dad, i am an introvert. i tend to keep things to myself. prior to this assignment, i’ve taken a personality test (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) and my results came out as an…screen-shot-2017-02-07-at-12-33-54-am

this was really accurate to my personality. i’d say im generally a shy person, sometimes i struggle when expressing my feelings to my close ones because of shyness, hence resulting in being misunderstood.

so in this assignment, i thought it’ll be a good idea to cave out and portray the relationship between my dad and i through the act of giving. (because saying i love you for us is… tough.) this act of giving my dad my food silently is often a routine, knowing he hardly think twice of giving me the best and his all.
