WE  TRY MOVE ON  

WE TRY TO PASS ON 

WE TRY TO LOVE ON

IT SEEMS EACH GENERATION HAS THE GOAL TO BE A BIT BETTER THEN THE  PREVIOUS ONE..  A NATURAL DESIRE TO DO BETTER.  WE CELEBRATE FATHER'S DAY TO SAY THANK YOU.   I REALIZE THAT THIS DAY LIKE MOTHER'S DAY & OTHER HOLIDAYS HAS BEEN COMMERCIALIZED TO THE  VERY DEATH OF ALL REASON.  BUY DAD THE BIG BETTER, BEST THERE IS. 

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE CARING, SHARING & DARING TO BE THERE.  FOR SHOWING BY EXAMPLE  HOW WONDERFUL THE WORLD COULD BE  IF WE ONLY JUST TRIED A LITTLE  TO BE THE VERY BEST WE CAN BE.  TO EXPECT NO MORE BUT TO ACCEPT NO LESS.  TO BE A TEACHER IN THE WAYS OF LIFE, A GUIDE ON THE RIGHT PATH.   

THIS DAY IS NOT ONLY FOR BIOLOGICAL FATHERS BUT FOR ANY MAN BRAVE ENOUGH TO TAKE THE RESPONSIBILITY TO TAKE THE TIME, THE  CARE, THE TROUBLE & LOVE TO BE WILLING  TO SAY NO WHEN NECESSARY, EVEN IF IT REALLY DOES HURT YOU MORE THEN IT DOES  THEM.  THE WISDOM TO SAY THIS IS HOW YOU SHOULD DO IT NOT THAT WAY.  EVEN IF IT TAKES A LITTLE LONGER . THE KNOWLEDGE TO SAY WAIT, NOW IS NOT THE TIME OR YES NOW YOU ARE READY.  TO BE THE ONE A CHILD CAN TRUST.   BE IT FATHER, GRANDPA, STEP-FATHER, UNCLE , SON, BROTHER, FRIEND, TEACHER OR WHATEVER.  YOU ARE INDEED A TREASURE, RARE & PRECIOUS.  THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART & SOUL.  

JUST ONE MAN LIKE YOU  CAN CHANGE A CHILD'S LIFE.  YOU CAN REALLY CHANGE THAT CHILD IN THE BEST SEMSE OF THE WORD.  IN SO DOING THAT ONE MAN (YOU) CAN CHANGE THE WORLD.  IMAGINE THE EFFECT IF MEN EVERY WHERE EVER HE BE TOOK THAT RESPONSIBILITY FOR A CHILD. WE AS ADULTS CAN HELP FORM A MUCH MORE BEAUTIFUL WORLD.  IT ISN'T OIL, GOLD, FAME, PROPERTY. MONEY OR POWER THAT IS THE REAL KEY TO EVERYONE'S FUTURE.  THAT RESOURCE IS THE WORLD''S CHILDREN.  THEY ARE OUR FUTURE.  FOR BETTER OR WORSE , REMEMBER.   WE NEED THEM TO HAVE THE RIGHT EXAMPLES.  THEY NEED US TO GUIDE, TO TEACH  TO LOVE & TO SHOW THE WAY TO GO.   THE TIME IS HERE & NOW TO STEP UP.  THERE IS MORE TO LOSE THEN WE THINK.   SO WE REALLY NO LONGER HAVE THE LUXURY OF SAYING "MINE ARE TAKEN CARE OF  ~  TAKE CARE OF YOUR OWN."  

I RECENTLY HEARD A VERY POPULAR  FEMALE CONSERVATIVE, WELL KNOWN  & BEST SELLING AUTHOR SAY "I ONLY WORRY ABOUT MYSELF.  i DO NOT HAVE ANY CHILDREN.  SO I ONLY HAVE MY OWN FUTURE TO BE CONCERNED OR WORRIED ABOUT .   I DON'T CIVE A ****  ABOUT ANTYHING BUT MY LIFE.  AS LONG AS THERE IS ENOUGH FOR ME THAT IS ALL I THINK ABOUT.  IT IS MY LIFE I CARE ABOUT.  NOT YOUR CHILDREN (THE REPORTER MENTIONED HE WAS A FATHER)  OR ANYONE ELSE'S CHILDREN"   SHE THEN LAUGHED.  SINCE THIS PERSON IS WELL KNOWN FOR HER OUTRAGEOUS, INSENSITIVE, TASTELESS, RUDE, UNKIND & OFTEN CRUEL REMARKS IT WAS JUST TREATED AS JUST ANOTHER OF HER COMMENTS .  LIKE OR NOR NOT ; TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT.  I FEEL SORRY FOR THIS PERSON, SAD & SORRY FOR HER & HER WAY OF THINKING.    

BESIDES BEING SAD & SELFISH IT IS AS WRONG AS A MAN OR WOMAN NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY  FOR THE CHILDREN  THEY HELPED TO CREATE & EXPECTING OTHERS TO CARE FOR THESE  CHILDREN.  WE NO LONGER HAVE THE OPTION OF  ALL OF US  NOT WORKING TOGETHER.  WE OWE IT TO OUR & ALL OTHER CHILDREN.  FOR BETTER OR WORSE THIS  NEST GENERATION  & THE FUTURE FOLLOWING  ONES MUST IMPROVE ON THE PAST ERRORS THAT WERE MADE IN HASTE, BY ACCIDENT OR THROUGH SHEER AVARICE IN THE PAST.  WE NEED TO COMPENSATE FOR WHAT WAS DONE AND START GIVING THE EXAMPLE OF WHAT SHOULD BE DONE, REDONE OR PLAIN TORN DOWN & THEN  RESTARTED. IT WON'T BE EASY, WE WILL HAVE TO BE BRAVE, SMART, STRONG,  CARING & LOVING.  WE MUST RETHINK ALL OUR PRIORIYIES ~ PAST, PRESENT & FUTURE.  WE MOST PUT ASIDE PETTY , SELFISH & DIVIDING BELIEFS.  WE WE MUST  ALL COME  TOGETHER AT LONG LAST BECAUSE THERE IS TOO MUCH AT RISK IF WE DON'T.   

SO I SAY THREE CHEERS TO EACH & EVERY MAN WHO IS A FATHER OR A FATHER FIGURE.  YOU DESERVE THE VERY BEST THERE IS .  I HOPE THE ANGELS ARE BY YOU EACH & EVERY DAY.  MAY THE ANGELS GUIDE YOU, GUARD YOU, PROTECT YOU, LEAD YOU ON & BLESS YOU.   BEING A GOOD ROLE MODEL TO THE NEXT GENERATION IS NO EASY TASK.  BUT IT IS THE JOB OF A REAL LIFE HERO.  BETTER THAN ANY HERO IN ANY MOVIE THAT WAS, HAS OR WILL EVER BE MADE.  BUT ALWAYS REMEMBER THERE ARE ALSO  MANY MOTHERS & MOTHER FIGURES BESIDES YOU TO HELP.  MUCH LOVE TO YOU ALL.
