Today’s day is special just like another day. But there is something that was spurring me all this while and today, I received an answer to it. I am going to share a few very intimate and sensitive contents here today. Please make sure to read it only if you have a good time else, you may want to keep it for later. All this while, I’ve been seeing people share pictures and posts with their Fathers on this very beautiful day to express their love and affection, which is a very very beautiful thing, of course, we live only once and living in the moment matters the most. But what about those whose Fathers are only in the form of memories and spirits? I could barely imagine what they might be going through when they see posts like that, and it never occurred to me until I saw my very own best friend post a very deep message about how she misses posting pictures and moments with her Dad and she had so much more planned for him. This broke me. Because every year, and all the time she posts a picture with him, I ensure she’s well, comforted, protected and loved. But unfortunately or fortunately, there’s no replacement for parents' love and it becomes an extra ounce of emotional strength for her to get back to life after feeling the emptiness. This made me think for a moment, does it mean we should not celebrate our moment with our dads or hide it for the sake of comfort which again is unsure and uncertain! I asked my Father about it, and the answer he gave was priceless. I asked him if he would be okay if I don’t post his picture and rather wish him and receive his blessings in person, as I did not want to miss an opportunity to be grateful for having him and express of how lucky and fortunate I am for having him with us, to which he replied, “I am happy to receive that special acknowledgement on this day, and about posting, I’ll have to say that, few moments are special and full of emotions. It is again a matter of choice to share it to the world or not, but what we need to understand here is that those moments are Ours and Ours alone.” I am still spellbound for the kind of response that I received from him. It’s indeed deep and I wish, one must understand the depth of it before claiming any complications on the sensitivity part. It’s a beautiful day like all others and if we take time to acknowledge and express how grateful we are to have them, that will be the most beautiful wish they could ask for. Try it️ <3 The same goes for all other special days, where some of us miss the physical presence of our beloved ones. But for today, Happy Father’s Day to all the Fathers in Form and Spirits Happy Father’s Day to those single Mothers who are both a Mother and a Father Happy Father’s Day to those Siblings who have taken a position of Father to their little ones Happy Father’s Day to the Husbands who’ve been silently protecting and caring at their best maximum level to feel and express Fatherly affection in making them feel home and loved Happy Father’s Day to those who’ve been seeing another Daughter and Son in their, In-laws <3 It’s a beautiful day, let us take a moment to acknowledge each ️other. And yes, thank you so much for taking the time to read this. If there is anything that requires improvement, feel free to share. Learning is the most amazing gift that I can receive anytime️ and anywhere <3
