[QUOTE="Tejwant Singh, post: 213519, member: 138"] And this is my tribute to my kids on Father's Day [SIZE=5][B]A Note of Gratitude[/B][/SIZE] [URL='https://www.facebook.com/notes/teji-malik/a-note-of-gratitude/10152461014965926/']June 16, 2014 at 8:13pm[/URL] Dear Jaskeerat and Trimaan, Yesterday was Father’s Day which kept me thinking how I can thank you two for making me the person I have become. When your Mum and you wished me Happy Father’s Day, I realized that this would not have come to fruition without you three. It should be actually Dad’s day in my opinion because being a father is easy but it is awfully tough to be a dad which is a treacherous path with no manual, laden with lots of traps that can only be overcome with trial and plenty of errors. But thanks to you two, the path has been wonderful and the journey has been full of bliss. On the other hand, Mums are fortunate to enjoy the journey for nine months which creates a special bond between them and their off springs unlike the dads who wait during the delivery reading a book while the poor mums toil to give birth, breast feed them to health and teach them the first words to utter, hence begins the life lasting dialogue, a conversation, a unique interaction which become the foundation of relationship between the kids, mums and dads for the rest of their lives. My gratitude towards you two is exactly for the latter. After your Mum taught you the first words to express yourselves with, I joined in the conversation and the interaction which has fortified itself with the years. You two are way mature beyond your chronological years. We have no such thing as generation gap because all three of us can talk about anything and everything without any hesitance or any barrier for which I am truly grateful to you two. The time filled with trials and errors have made us even closer yet creating a unique friendship between a dad and his two proud kids. Only a few dads can have that privilege that you have bestowed upon me. Allow me to quote from a famous poet Khalil Gibran who writes about the children in a [I]very thoughtful manner[/I]: [B][I]On Children by Khalil Gibran from The Prophet[/I][/B] [I]And a woman who held a babe against her bosom said, "Speak to us of Children." And he said: [/I] [I]Your children are not your children.[/I] [I]They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.[/I] [I]They come through you but not from you, [/I] [I]And, though they are with you, yet they belong not to you.[/I] [I]You may give them your love but not your thoughts.[/I] [I]For they have their own thoughts. [/I] [I]You may house their bodies but not their souls,[/I] [I]For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,[/I] [I]which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams,[/I] [I]You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.[/I] [I]For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday. [/I] [I]You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.[/I] [I]The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,[/I] [I]and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.[/I] [I]Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;[/I] [I]For even as he loves the arrow that flies so He loves also the bow that is stable.[/I] , I hope to be the bow in the poem and will do my utmost best to help you fly with your own wings so that you can soar the horizons of self-discovery on your own. Thanks for giving me this great opportunity by making this day a memorable and meaningful one. Love. Dad [MEDIA=facebook]10152461014965926[/MEDIA] [IMG]https://scontent.flas1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-0/s180x540/10462719_10152508913577138_9021955861894342425_n.jpg?oh=035ce5195696e189aa1bbe3f907776be&oe=59EB4E7F[/IMG]Trimaan,Dad & Jaskeerat [/QUOTE]
