The one who is always there for me
The one who always cares
The one who guided me through dark times
The one I miss the most when I am not there
The one who always makes me laugh
The one who I can truly confide in
The one who always takes me fishing
The one who will always listen
The one who makes my day turn round
The one who always knows when to hold me back
The one who is proud no matter what I choose to do
The one who understands my soul
The one who taught me how to live
The one who showed me how to quell my fires
The one who showed me how to care
The one who helped me become a man
The one who is my hero
The one who is my closest friend
The one I will love forever more

MY FATHER

and you will be blessed.

A fine man your father must be to have raised a son who is capable of lovingly writing such honouring and appreciative words such as these!

God bless you both!

Loving Light,

EA

A good age to learn. Came back to read
this again, because it touched me so.

It shows...

growth.

And Love.

Now, you will have time to cherish
the new days, and while you'll never
forget the punk days? They will be
there when your child comes up to you.

So, remember well.

And continue to appreciate
the Dad in your life.
