*Spoilers* A line that hits heavy, enough so to quiet everything.

 SPOILER for I think Batman issue 683. This was after Bruce died. No one ever really thinks about how Alfred feels, but he's a human too. Bruce was his son and nobody realizes just how much it hurt him to his core, even if he doesn't express it, until this one line.

 Bruce I also think is grateful to Alfred and knows how much he does for him. They both know what they are too each other, even if neither are the type to explicitly state it.

 The reason I posted this was not solely Alfred and who he is as a character and what makes him tick, though that is a huge part of this post. It's that a lot of us at times fail to see what some of the people around us do for us, especially parents who do so much without stating it, without complaining or not receiving anything in return. Always remember what the people around you do for you and how much it really means. Sometimes the little things have greater impacts, like that last line in the first panel up above, than they seem. Always show your gratitude and never fail to reciprocate the time put from those around you to hold your shoulders up. Much love to everyone, thank you for reading this, I appreciate it very much.
