The strength of my life.. My Father...

Hi... Today i will talk about my feelings about my father... .
Yes.. my father.. this could be anyone's feeling.. just portraying my feelings towards a wonderful person whoz the strength of my life...

My father... A person who is always there as a pillar of strength for me... If only i could do quarter of the things in return to all tht my father has done for me, i would b honored...

From the time i can remember my childhood.. i hav always had this pillar of strength wid me.. Can I really start penning down the things tht my father has done for me??? No.. i really cant... Im just not matured enuf to delve into his thoughts and figure out what sacrifices he has made time and again to make my life the most beautiful as he can for me...

My father... the credit for wat Im today, goes to this man. To give an example, I always wanted to go for a job after completing my engineering degree in Electronics. But my degree had come at a time when the IT industry was experiencing the worst problems.. wen thousands of software professionals were laid off.. and i wanted to go for a software job... But, for a freshe like me tht time, I couldnt find my job...
I had this frustration, coupled with my father telling me to study further... I just scorned bac.. "I dont want to study further...."

But, My father ... being a banker and knowing nothing about the IT and engineering brought a prospectus for me after reading and AD... He forced me to fill it up and go for further studies.. though i felt tht time tht these efforts will be futile...

I got comments from my near relatives and family friends saying tht "You r wasting your fathers money...", "Why is your father investing so much to further educate a girl??"... and so on... BUT.. My father dint listen to anyone... He accompanied me to Pune and saw to it tht i was safe int he hostel there... Even at the time my mom felt insecure about me staying in a faraway place and in a hostel, My father put all his trust in me and supported me... and now here I am... working for a company which can be called as anyones dream company... But how many ppl know tht if it was not for my father, who had taken a huge loan just for my studies is the lone person whose responsible for this dream of mine to come true???

That was just an example, but if i go to write down everything tht my father has done for me, it will take a lifetime for me to rite and still it wint b enuf...

Truly, My father is the strength of my life, I always saw his tuff, strong face as a child... did get scared of him... But, I dint notice the caring and tender heart and the protective hands at tht time... But now.. yes i do... I do recollect all those past misdeeds and feel bad... wish id always hav had listened to all tht he told me to do.. wish i would...

Wat a wonderful person god gives to everyone right from childhood... strong hands to protect, a tender heart to care... asking nothing in return but your happiness...
Tht tender heart only yearns for your happiness even if it means hampering his own...
So caring, so simple yet so complex to figure out all those sacrifices...

I wish I could do every possible thing to make him happy... I wish God continues to bestow me his blessings in the form of my fathers care amd concern... I wish God gives such a caring hand to every child...

This was all i could rite, as i said earlier, it will take me a lifetime to rite all tht my father has done for me.. and still some chapters will remain unwritten...

If at all my father reads this anytime, I just want to say to him, which i could ironically never b able to say on his face... "You are the source of my strength... I Love you very much and i hope God will always bestow me wid your care and affection... I just cant say thanx for all tht you hav done for me for the simple reason tht it will underestimate all your care towards me... "
