We would <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/inspiring-stories\/stories-of-faith-and-hope\/guideposts-classics-chester-gould-on-the-value-of-persistence\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">read the comics<\/a> and share a sweet pastry. Bear claws were our favorite. Dad would split one right down the middle. \u201cTake your half,\u201d he\u2019d tell me, and we\u2019d enjoy every bite. Even after I grew up and moved out, Dad would still save half of his weekly bear claw and give it to me the next time I came over for dinner.<\/p>\n<p>One day, we went out for coffee to talk about our trip to New York City, which was coming up in a couple weeks. Dad, a proud New Yorker, was so excited to show me his favorite spots. \u201cI want to take you to this diner I used to go to every morning before work,\u201d he said. \u201cI would always get a cup of coffee and a snail.\u201d I couldn\u2019t help but laugh. Like a bear claw, a snail was such a funny name for a <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/friends-and-family\/friends\/how-an-italian-pastry-brightened-an-indian-american-familys-christmas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pastry<\/a>. \u201cI can\u2019t wait to share a snail in the city,\u201d I said.<\/p>\n<p>We never got the chance. Just a week later, Dad died of a stroke. I was overcome by grief. I couldn\u2019t even bring myself to <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/friends-and-family\/family\/a-source-of-comfort-in-a-time-of-grieving\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">find comfort<\/a> in a bear claw. The thought of eating one without Dad taking the other half made me too sad.<\/p>\n<p>A few months later, I was at the office and went to the kitchen for a cup of coffee. On the counter was a pink bakery box. Out of curiosity more than hunger, I peeked inside. Only a few <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/health-and-wellness\/meet-a-white-house-pastry-chef\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pastries<\/a> were left\u2014including a bear claw, cut perfectly down the middle. And next to it was a snail. \u201cTake your half,\u201d I could almost hear Dad say. I did, and I enjoyed every bite.<\/p>\n<p><em>For more inspiring stories, subscribe to <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shopguideposts.org\/magazines\/guideposts-magazine.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Guideposts<\/strong><\/a> <em>magazine<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday breakfast was my time with Dad when I was growing up.
