A Rasta Tale (still week 1)

This is a story from Rasta Ronnie, the awesome handy-man at Stephanie's. He is 60 years old and has a son and daughter. He is separated from the woman (women?) he had his kids with. His daughters lives in the US. He has attempted to contact her but only the mom knows the number and she refuses to give it to Ronnie or give his number to the daughter. Clearly this is illegal and immoral. It's downright mean in fact. However, Ronnie is not angry about this, he is calm and patient. His reasoning is that eventually his daughter will want to find her father and will seek him out. Though this is impractical it is the philosophical nature of his outlook that is interesting. He believes that things will inevitably work out for the best and he is content in the knowledge that his daughter is doing well. If only more American's could be this selfless.
