My dad is just spending his days, shaking his legs and doing nothing. He is older now, retired and I don't expect him to do much. However, his personality of doing nothing clashes with my mom who is always driven to do something.
Is he simple-minded man or just plain lazy?
He is a very simple man, low aspirations, low drive but yet have a kind heart. He is humble and because he knows he is not as educated, not as rich, he is always nicer to others. He is gentle, not opinionated, always wanted to contribute, do more and let other get ahead of him.
These all should be great qualities but however these are also his setback.
Low aspirations = low money
Low drive = Lazy
Humble = low self esteem
Nice and Kind = Not thinking of himself or his family first
Gentle = Softie
Not opinionated = no stand, useless
Let others be ahead = eventually Bitter
There are always two sides to a coin, a positive and negative effects to everything.
Which side of the coin do you want to look at?

Sometimes you need to see both to value someone. Actually, your dad's is my dad's attitude. Coincidence....
