Father… No words are enough to describe how much this word weighs!
When I was a child, I thought a father was just someone who brings money home.
When I grew up into adolescence, I thought a father was someone who also looks after his wife and children, besides bringing money and other necessities home.
And now, as a teenager, I have come to realize that a father is the pillar of the house.
Can we construct a storeyed building without pillars?
Now I realize that, for me, it is completely impossible to complete any task without my father. You are the foundation of my life and of our family. Not even a single day of mine goes by without seeking something from you.
I used to get angry with you sometimes, thinking you scolded me unfairly. But I didn’t realize then that you were only trying to put me on the right track. Sometimes I behaved ridiculously, not considering your words. But do you know, I cried behind closed doors for behaving that way with you? I misunderstood your love and the way you cared. I only looked at your sternness whenever you said “no” to a few things I wanted to do.
But thank you so much for those moments — they might have hurt me instantly, but deep down, they helped me understand your care and concern for me.
Nanna,
You are the one who always makes me happy by giving me everything I want, no matter how difficult it is for you.
You are the one who gives me hope during my darkest times.
You are the one who celebrates my success and happiness.
You are the one who truly believes in me, no matter how many times I fail.
You are the one who sacrifices your happiness for mine, your dreams for my dreams, your needs for my needs.
You are the one who gave up your good days to make our lives bright.
You are the one who faces all difficulties without ever letting us know about them.
As the days go by, I am beginning to understand more and more about your role in my life and in our family, which makes me think of you in everything I do. You always try to keep a smile on my face.
From being cool to being strict,
From being naughty to being obedient,
From being a kid to being an elder,
From being a peer to being a mentor,
From being an antagonist to being a companion,
From being ferocious to being witty,
From being a doctor to being a father—
Your presence has made my life complete. Every day, every hour, every second, every moment — your presence is the fuel of my life. I feel lost when you are not by my side.
Your unseen efforts and struggles in supporting and raising the family may sometimes go unnoticed, but I could never put your love and tireless support into words.
You are my inspiration.
You are my role model.
You are my teacher.
Ultimately, you are the guru of my life.
Thank you so much for raising two strong girls and teaching us the meaning of life. You are our life coach. Whatever decision you make for us always turns out to be the best.
I’m sorry for being rude to you at times — but I believe those moments have only made our bond stronger and more heartfelt.
How can I ever repay your hard work and struggles that made our lives bright?
Honestly, I can’t.
Ideally, I want to be your little princess again in my next life too. 👑
I’m so proud to have a great father like you — you are the best!
Please don’t ever let go of my hand, Nanna. I soulfully pray for your happy, healthy, and prosperous life ahead.
In fact, we don’t need a special day to celebrate the person who gave us life — but Father’s Day is just one more blissful moment to honor you.
Wishing you a very Happy Father’s Day, Nanna! 😍🫂😊
