Dad and me

My dad is my lifeline. At times when i felt as if there is nothing in the world which is worth living for, it was looking at my dad which gave me courage enough to move forward.

Let me say something about him. He is my idol and with good reason. Soft hearted and loving, he can win hearts with just a smile. His wisdom gives me an anchor in the times i need to be rooted to reality. But the icing on the cake is his patience. I can say that his patience can actually move mountains because he tolerates my blabber for hours and does'nt utter a word of complaint.

For me, like many other daughters, my dad is the ideal and the best person ever to survive the face of this earth. However, he also faces a lot of problems, not because of anything else but for the fact that he is too quiet and accepting for his own good. Lucky me (sarcastically), I am exactly the same. My dad always tells me, don't follow my footsteps to such an extreme but learn from my experience. But foolish as I am, it takes me time to understand his sound advice.

I am a little too headstrong for my own good but i realize that I will never be mature enough to brush off my father's advices and observations. He is and will always be the one solid pillar in my life on whom i always depend for emotional security. People say you should depend upon noone but yourself. However I beg to differ. I, as always, listen to my heart and do what it speaks. I love you dad.
