My FATHER
We all talk a lot about Mothers..The pain they undergo to bring us into this beautiful life..the way they support us in whatever we do...the way they pamper us... and i do agree these are all true..But dont used to talk much about another very important person in our lives..FATHER..A gift we all take for granted..For some he might be the Hitler who always talk about discipline,who is not friendly,who always keep a distance...For some he might be the one who is softer,more supportive,more close than Mom.. Whatever be the picture in everyones mind, am not here to change anything...jus to pen down a father-daughter relationship,the depth of which I could find out after so many years....
I am realizing the value of what my dad taught me only after 22 long yrs....I cannot point out any "SPECIAL" memories..but lots of small memories from the day i was in kindergarden, which u ppl might find so silly but which are very important for me.. I used to think why my dad is not like others,why he is not treating me as a friend.... I was sad when i waited for his return from office to fill in my name and details in those nameslips and he denied telling I should do on my own...i was sad when I longed to see his handwriting on my notebooks,progress cards..and again he denied telling the same.. I was hurt when he dint accompany me to buy and fill in my application forms for college,for passports,for voters card etc... i did everything on my own or he made me do and I felt bad at that time...
Years flew by, I came out of the safer cocoon of my parents...Spread my wings to find out new arenas of life..new place,new people,new situations.. Here also i had to do everything on my own and unlike my colleagues and friends who found it difficult I was doing everything as if I know them... I dint feel scared at the thought of doing anythin alone..I dint yearn for a company to do things..At that point I realized why my father wanted me to do everythin on my own since I was so small..He wanted to make my days secure when I wont be under his wings..He wanted me to be bold and brave when i have to face the life on my own..He wanted me to be INDEPENDENT..
I am not sad anymore...I am not hurt anymore..I have no regrets also...I am happy that atleast now I am aware that HE was/is and will be there for me whenever I am in need and whatever he does is for my GOOD only...
This post is my small gesture to say THANK YOU DAD for all the things you did for me..!
Luv,
