Life Seems So Much Simpler When You’re Fixing Things
Posted on September 3, 2023
This blog post recounts my experiences fixing mechanical and electronic devices, learned from my father and uncles. I share stories of helping my father through his fight with cancer, and the aspirations of my late brother, who adored a Volkswagen Beetle that our dad restored after my brother’s passing. I also reflect on the loss of my brother’s potential and hope the restoration project will help my father grieve. I plan to visit my father soon, drive the Beetle, and remember my brother while exploring the desert roads and enjoying tacos (or a salad).
