MY DAD IS MORE THAN A MAN IN A MOVIE

I’ve talked about the strong willed, hard working traits that I’ve inherited from my mom- but that’s not to say I haven’t learned from my dad as well. My patience, my love of finding joy in the little things, and my will to help others, are all derived from following in my dad’s footsteps.

My dad is the glue to our family, holding us together with his caring personality. From fixing up minor breakages in our home, to cooking the occasional fancy meal, to even initiating our weekly family face masks sessions, my dad is a reliable, trustworthy man everyone can depend on. I’ve lost count of the number of times I had people tell me that he’s a man of wonders. I always proudly think to myself, “Oh, you bet he is.”
​
It’s true when they say not all heroes wear capes. My father may not be an invincible Superman who can fly, but he is definitely one of my biggest heroes.  I hope to carry the valuable traits he’s exemplified throughout all my life, and to make the world a little bit brighter through his influence.

Happy Father’s Day!
