As a kid, there may have been times when you were a little aimless or confused.
Maybe even a little lonely.
Jean-Luc Picard, Federation Starfleet Captain of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D!
Captain, diplomat, archaeologist, role model, and your primetime television father.
1.
You made an instant connection with him.
2.
He was diligent and hard-working.
3.
And stern, always well-composed.
4.
A cultured man, raised on a vineyard in France.
5.
With way more life experience than any adult in the REAL world.
6.
The kind of space-dad you could really brag to your friends about.
7.
He could be a little grumpy and intimidating at times.
8.
But he also had a sense of humor.
9.
He led an exciting life, exploring the universe and generally being magnificent.
10.
But also had a reserved, introspective side that just made you more curious about him.
11.
The more you craved his love, the more he withheld it!
12.
He taught you a code of ethics that would carry you across galaxies.
13.
He was there for you when you thought the universe was against you.
14.
He inspired you to be a better human.
15.
He taught you to appreciate music...
18.
...And life in all different forms.
19.
But most of all, he taught you that you weren't alone.
