Father's Day (2010)

Father's Day is being celebrated around the world on the third Sunday of June. It is being commemorated to honor fatherhood and male caretakers.

According to history, Father's Day was born as a token of love and gratitude that a daughter cherishes for her beloved father. It was the idea of a woman named Sonora Smart Dodd to celebrate Father's Day (during a Mother's Day sermon at a church) because after her mother died, it was her father Henry Jackson Smart who made all parental sacrifices and took over all the responsibilities of a mother could have done to her children. Mr. Henry Smart was born on June 19, 1910 that's why Sonora Smart Dodd chose to celebrate Father's Day every third Sunday of June.

President Nixon of the United States of America permanently declared a national observance of Father's Day in every third Sunday of June.

In honoring my father's unconditional love for us, I always wish him good health for the years to come. Through good and bad times, my father is always there to support, guide, and teach us how to be strong.

Thank you Father for all your sacrifices and love! Happy Father's Day!

Father

Today, June 15 is Father's Day. I called my Father this morning to greet him and I was so lucky that he was there in our house to answer the phone. He was very happy then to hear my voice and I'm very glad about it. Honestly, I was not closed to my father as what I used to be with my mother. But as years passed by, my longing for him begins to be intense. There is a deep emotion from me that I want to share it with him. Maybe because I had not shown him any affection whatsoever when we were together when I'm in the Philippines. There are times my father and I had differences and arguments. I believed thats a normal process between a father and son relationship. I had realized that I'm lucky that my father is still alive giving me a very good reason to stay strong in the midst of my own life in Saudi Arabia. He is there to adviced me to take care of myself, to remind me to thank God for all the blessings his giving me and remind me to pray at all times and be patient in life. After all, my father is still my father no matter what. He is the foundation of our family and he is the provider of our needs during our younger years. He might not be a perfect father, but I considered him the best I've ever got. I missed him so much.

Father, you made me strong

Your words are my strength during my loneliness

You give me hope and guided me

In my life in the desert which is solitary

You had inspired me to endure inspite of difficulty.

Father, I' am very sorry

For all the things that I made you angry

During our arguments I had spoken to you badly

I realized that you are right to tell me

The good side of life I need to follow patiently.

Father, I still remember those happy days

When I was young, we used to hop and play

Every Sunday you bring us to church and pray

We eat at a kiosk with lots of food on the tray

Till we end up full and tired, then sleep all day.

Father, you will always be in my heart

Like my mother you are a special person on earth

I will take care of you until your last breathe

I will give you my time to catch up our lost bonding

You will never regret your life because its enduring.

Father, I wish you well

Take care of yourself and always be agile

I know your an athletic person up to this day

Who constantly walk and run in every way

Father, take good of yourself ... and always take care!
