      In Greek too. "Το φως των ματιων μου". 'To fos ton mation mou'. Literally the light of my eyes. And, "ματια μου" / "matia mou", shorter "my eyes". Very common in every day language/communication. Have to say "Athenos" was a very astute observation to plug into that routine.

    I can go on and on about my childhood as an immigrant pastor’s child, but there’s one memory I will never forget. He would spend hours and hours in church meetings while I would sit on the floor watching the other kids playing their handhelds or home consoles. When I turned 9, he took me to Walmart. I was always envious watching the other kids play the new video games on the tvs (if you know you know). My heart was beating really fast. He told me “You have been doing great in school, and I am very proud of you. Do you want a Game Boy or a DS lite. My heart stopped. I was stuck. Do I ask more than I deserve or settle? I chose the DS, and he said done and done. Went to GameStop, bought me vanilla games but I don’t think I’ve ever been that happy since. Thank you pops.

No jacket, but a makeshift bed, and leaving soon was waiting for like, an hour.

      "Put two chairs together, we're leaving soon" is when it's midnight, your parents won't quit hanging out with their friends in the vestibule after a 8:00 mass on a holy day of obligation and no one's kicking them out because Catholic churches never lock their doors.

      As a PhD student in Linguistics, I can confirm that your parents did it right. Kids have no trouble learning 2, 3 or even more languages at once and becoming fluent in them all. So, parents have nothing to worry about. Teach your kids your native langauge - especially if is not the main language spoken in the country you live in. They'll be better off.

    To be fair, immigrant dads or Asian dads, in general, are more loving towards their daughters than their sons & it shows!!!😂😂
    My dad's Indian and he tells both me and my brother that he loves us so much! which I never realized to date, but my mom on the other hand is a whole other situation who wouldn't even hold ur hand while shopping in case you run away or something ............. she doesn't give a shit... LOL🤣🤣

    In most of the asian cultures (south asia, east asia) people are highly emotional and have deep thoughts of love and concern for your families but our cultures do not express those feelings easily. Most of the times if you try to express them in words that would be too much to handle or too cliche! That is why you would rarely see your parents saying you that they love you while they can easily sacrifice everything including their life for your betterment. For us, the feelings love and affection is very severe, so people usually do not or I would say can not express them in words so easily.

    Yep childhood memories with my dad at home depot up until I was 10 I would always go with him. Never understood y it took so long just to get nails. He would literally drive to home depot stare at nails for 30 minutes then say "well I think they are a little cheaper at harbor freight" . Then get to harbor freight stare at nails again for 30 minutes. Then he would say " they are 10 cents cheaper at home depot so let's go back" lol
