Hi everyone. In the US, today is celebrated as Father's Day to commemorate our fathers. Wishing all you who are fathers a special day of recognition of the role you play in your children's lives and or everyone you come in contact with.
I lost my dad 6 years ago. That was a wake up call for me. No more time to quibble over our differences. I had to stop playing the blame game. That was all over. Then through the tears and grief I started feeling gratitude for the tiny things they gave to me and I overlooked (and the big things too). I had to start seeing myself as a nurturer of the next generation rather than a child of my father.
To those who have fathers who you do not see eye to eye with, may you find some small way of recognizing the smallest things they contributed to your survival and upbringing.
Happy Fathers day to you.
