Dwayne JohnsonHe tells his fans not to wait too long when it comes to dealing with parents. He speaks directly to his male fans who, like him, have problems with their fathers.
The actor posted a black-and-white video to Instagram early Thursday morning … and in it he revealed that yesterday was his father's fifth anniversary Rocking “Soulman” Johnson's death.
The Rock notes that he and his father weren't doing particularly well when he died… and Dwayne says he woke up feeling weird yesterday – and realized it was because he'd never get a chance would like to fix everything Pop, and it still bothers him.
Aside from having a difficult relationship in general, he said that he and his father got into an explosive argument on Christmas Eve, just three weeks before Soulman's death… and he was never able to tell his father that they were okay.
DJ says he knows there are a lot of guys out there who don't have good relationships with their dads… but he's sure all dads love their kids – even in the limited ways they can.
There are a lot more words of wisdom from The Rock in this clip, so watch the clip until the end… but it sounds like he has a lot of regrets that he wishes he could make amends.
