CELTIC CORNER
Tribute to Father
Fathers are the
biggest source of strength for a child. The innocent eyes of a child perceive
father as the all-powerful, most knowledgeable, truly affectionate and the most
important person in the family. For daughters, fathers are the first men they
adore and fall in love with. While for sons their fathers are the strongest
person they know and someone whom they look up to for the most experienced and
honest advice that is always in the best of their interest. For this great
figure in our life that we know as father-it becomes our utmost duty to pay our
humblest tribute on the occasion of Father’s Day.
Say Thanks to Dad on Father’s Day
Children blessed
with a loving father should consider themselves fortunate. For, they have
someone to take care of their needs and interests. Someone to stop them when
they are diverting to a wrong path and guide them on a road to success and
virtue. For many of us, fathers have always been there to solve our innumerous
mathematics and science problems and explain the same formula a hundredth times
or more until it is understood by us. Fathers would never ever give a smallest
of hint to let us know how hard they work to take care of our needs and fulfill
even the most whimsical of demands. For all their adorable scolding and
affectionate punishments we all owe a big thanks to our Dads.
Apologize to Dad on Father’s Day
Father’s Day also
brings with it the wonderful opportunity to apologize for all our rude and
insensitive behavior. We as children often take the love and affection of our
parents for granted and treat them with outright contempt. We need to
apologize. We must feel great to have the presence of a loving father in our
lives and do not disrespect him. On Father’s Day we must say “SORRY” to our Dad
and seek his forgiveness for our wrong behavior.
Celebrate Father’s Day with Dad
We must make all
efforts to celebrate Father’s Day with our Dad. Children staying away from
father must especially strive to spend the day with father and show gratitude
for all their support and love. We must pamper father by spending the day in a
manner he likes most. It could be going out for a picnic or indulging him with
a gourmet meal. We can also express love with thoughtful gifts accompanied by a
bouquet of his favorite flowers. The idea is to show our affection and tell
Daddy how much he is loved and appreciated not just on Father’s Day but every
single day of our lives.
