Father and Kids

"Father and Kids", Soft Pastels

Thoughts About Fathers

My father taught me the value of "independence" and "self-reliance"  early on

As a young schoolboy, overwhelmed by a seemingly difficult school task

I came up to him and  asked him to do  my assignment

He gently  uttered, "Do it yourself first and  I will check once you are done."

A father is  his  children's first hero

He walks with his  offsprings and guides them through life

Hoping that they will turn out better than himself,

Able to deal with what life throws at them.
