Happy Father's Day

I understand that Father's Day was yesterday but I wanted to write something about my father here on Earth. During Sunday school, my group was writing a song to their dads, they needed to pull out four lines and I couldn't even achieve that. I've never been good at expressing myself with songs. For me, it's hard when you're limited. I love to write for it's freeing nature. But enough about that.
If you know me, I'm here to tell you that you know my dad already then. Not by his appearence but what personality traits he has. To my knowledge and belief, my dad is the strongest person I know, the things that he has had to go through growing up is overwhelming. He loves to laugh but he fails in making other people laugh sometimes with his lame jokes. He gives out advice to the best of his knowledge and ability and he sees potential in people. He has a big heart to match all these things, he loves to give and give even if it means he has to work harder to get that money or to work harder and take out his time. He has a mind of a story teller, he's a deep thinker and a very deep man. He has an intelligence that I obviously didn't inherit though my older sister did. He is patient but just like me, when you've ticked him off enough, he'll unleash hell worse than Undertaker and Stone Cold Steve Austin could ever have put together. Don't get on his bad side, it's the worse feeling, it's the words he wraps in your mind that will kill you inside. He's a leader and he knows how to be, he's a survivor and he'll last until the very end. He can't sing or dance and I think my older brother inherited that. But the positive things that do count, makes him who he is and if you're reading this, not wanting to be proud and arrogant but you'll see some qualities that he shares that have been inherited to me. They believe I look like him, but they believe I act like him too, but he never ponders on things and shows his frown like I do, I wish I had that, he finds joy in the hard times.

He's struggled so much in his life and he has a lot because of me, but just like my mum, just like God, they and he love me unconditionally and forgive me everytime. When I went through losing people through deaths, heart break from ex-girlfriends, my injuries, my problems and addictions and my car accident he was there. Always had to bring me to the places he'd know I'd party hard and it hurt him, but he knew I had to learn for myself and when I got my license, I'm thinking that he feared for me as much as my mother did. They'd stay awake every night when they knew I'd be drinking and I'd have my car. Then that night their worse fears had come. I put my parents through so much and this was the biggest of all disappointments I'm guessing to them, that night I crashed my car. But my dads helped me get through it all both of them did the one here on Earth, and the one up in heaven. I would never have made it without them. I wouldn't trade him for any other dad, and I'm glad and proud to have inherited some of his greatest attributes.

As a kid I thought he was the Terminator, big and strong and nothing could destroy him. Nothing has. And to me, he'll live forever, cause my Mum needs him and so does this world.

He'll probably never read this, but Happy Father's Day, Dad! I love you.
