Question

"My life is a love letter to my kid"

or w.e,

what does that mean ?!

Answer 1

Well he lives to be there for his child and love him or her

Answer 2

Robert Downey Jr. loves and care alot about his child

Answer 3

It means that his life is about caring for his child. All of his life is for the purpose of caring for his child. It is as though his life was a love letter to his child. I know this looks confusing but the man is using a metaphor. It's not to be taken literally.

Examples of metaphors:

He was my knight in shining armour (he was my saviour/hero)

I'm a waste of space (I am useless)

He is a Walter Mitty (He is a daydreamer)

My wealth is a magnet for the impoverished (My wealth draws the poor towards me)
