Father's Day

When you need some understanding - 
When you need someone to care - 
When you need someone to guide you - 
        Father is always there.

The mothers are more expressive about their love - while the love of fathers is usually invisible. 
However, even the strongest and toughest men have compassion in their hearts - they are not heartless.
They also have love, empathy, and compassion to care for their children.
A father expects and helps his son to become better than he ever wanted to be himself.
Good fathers always do three things - 
            They provide, they nurture, and they guide.

When I was going through a rough time, my father told me that even the most profound losses can be overcome  
- that we can still survive and succeed. 
He told me not to overthink things. 
He said nothing can ever be perfect - 
so keep moving and do your best.
He gave me the greatest gift anyone could give - he believed in me. 
He encouraged and helped me to become what I am.
He left this mortal world on April 24, 1994

Here are some nice quotes about Father
  • Fatherhood is something you are doing that you are not trained or qualified to do - and then you become qualified - while doing it.
  • My father used to play with my brother and me in the yard. Mother would come out and say you are ruining the grass. And my father would reply - we are not raising grass. We are raising the children.
  • By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he is wrong.
  • I used to think that my father was a superhero. Then I began to see his flaws. Later, I realized that we all have flaws - however, a father is the one that we can always trust and rely upon.
  • Sometimes the poorest man leaves his children the richest inheritance.
  • Every father should remember that his children will follow his example more than his advice.

When the mind is clear, there are no questions. But ... When the mind is troubled, there are no answers.  When the mind is clear, questions ...
