I know people would say, I am remembering you on Father's Day! One day in a year.... But Dad
I want you to know that I always loved you and always wanted to say... but could not say....
It was just last month I visited you, stayed with you for whole three weeks. We chatted less,
discussed more. I always made my point against you. I always thought your ways were different, if
not wrong. I sometimes even fought.... I told you millions of stories about my work, my friends,
world, Internet, technology... but never spared a few moments to listen to your stories; stories about
your job, your friends, your world.
Now that I am miles away from you, I am missing you. I am missing talking to you, sitting in
front of you.
There is not a single moment of my life which doesn't remind me of you! My job, my skill, my
knowledge is all because of you. When people praise me for my work, I may not say out loud,
but I know in my heart that praise is because of you.
When I get a promotion, raise in salary... I know somewhere in my heart that its again because of
you.
I know I don't call you as frequently as I call mom, but I know there not a single day when you
haven't thought of me or asked mom about me. I know I don't talk with you for long on phones,
still whenever we finish our call, all your calls end with "All The Best". It's your best wishes
that have made me what I am.
I know I have embarrassed you many times, I have made you sad many times, I have not met
your expectations many times.... But you were still there with me. In my hardest time, whenever
I felt weak, I knew you were there holding my hand, telling me to be strong.
Thanks for being there whenever I needed you. I know you were still there for me whenever I
felt, I am a grown up boy now and I don't need you. It was your trust and faith in me that has
made me reach the heights of my career. Thanks for making me what I am today. It wouldn't
have been possible without you. You've given me everything I ever demanded and also which I
even thought of.
Dad, now that I am miles away from you I crave to have those days back where I know I will
see you every morning reading the newspaper, rushing for the office, calling Mom from the office saying that
you reached safely, having family dinner every night and family lunches every Sunday.
Dad, I want to be with you again. Now it's my turn to be with you. Now it's my turn to help you
with whatever you need, which I know you would never say. But, I assure you dad we will be
soon together. I will be back to be with you.
Love You Dad!
