New Year Letter To My Father by autofreak2020(m): 8:13am On Jan 02, 2014 |
I wouldn't forgive myself if i leave this planet without showing sincere and profound gratitude to you. I dont know if there is anyone that could bring me up as you did, but one thing is very certain, no father can ever love me and care about me as you did, the fact that you took your time to select the best mother for us show how futuristic and irreplaceable you are to us. I wept silently when my mother told me what you went through to provide drugs, custards and other provisions for me when i was an infant or toddler. You never settled for anyghing less than the best for your family to the extent that i was sent to the best private schools (Glovic and Shonik international school), lagos state model college and now in better by far university. You showed me how and why i must think like a man and act like a leader, i am not there yet, but i will make you proud soonest, i want to tell the world and sell your mentality to the world about how a boy must be brought up in a nuclear family. You bought a book for me in year 2007 written by James Dobson (bringing up boys), to my surprise, all the listes qualities of an exceptional father in that book are exactly in you, you 've got them all. You assigned responsibilities to me at any slight opportnity that comes your way and trained me on how to take decision by involving me in key decision making in the house. You gave me the chance to determine how your house should look like, i modified it and you accepted it just the way i said it. You made me feel like i was on top of the world when i decided the type of gate to use for your house and how the siting room should look like. I was the happiest man on earth when i chose your first car for you and you accepted and paid outrightly without an iota of doubt or fear. You hate laziness and detest procastination and i am aggressively winning battle against it too. |

IDEOLOGIES I never for a micro-second had any issues with your ideologies about life, religion, education, social, spiritual life and financial management. I year 2008, i often wonder why you constantly give me huge amount of money to save into your account on your behalf at a bank far away from home when you could have done it your self with ease. I also wonder why you kept referring plumbers, electricians and bricklayers to me if they want to secure any deal at all at a younger age. You told me to calculate my daily pocket money and sum it up to 30 days, you gave the money to me instantly and i asked for reasons for taking such action, you looked into my eyes and said it is the only way to teach me how to be responsible financially and i got your message instantly. I am yet to meet a father that is proud of his wards as you, a father that is loving, caring, exceptional and sacrificial as you. If God could permit me to worship anything aside him, i will never hesitate to worship my parents. The above are few good things i could remember about you out of numerous distinct qualities you posses, there are one million and one good things about you sir. You never purnished me just because you want me to get purnished, you beat because you want positive change, you purnish me because you always want the best from me, you yelled at me with all sort of words because you want me to forever give out the best in me, you constantly demand the best from me because you are the best father in the world. FORGIVENESS I have childishly offended you many times and in many ways during days of ignorance, i genuinely seek your forgiveness sir " nitori eyin agba noni emaan so wipe omode o le mo eko je komora lowo". PLEDGE I know one million and one ways to make you happy and i pray to almighty Allah (SWT) to give me the strenght and empower me to explore these ways and make you the happiest father of your generation. I know you and your wife would love to cruise arround in special kind of cars from how you constantly talk about how you would love to cruise with hybrid cars. I know how passionate you are when it comes to eating fresh fruits and vegetables and i also understand how you love to travel to different part of the world, you are a potential tourist. I will never feel fulfilled in my life; if i did not get a brand new hybrid car for you to cruise in, if i can not ensure constant supply of fresh fruits and vegetables to your home for you and your wife for the rest of your lives in this planet, if i fail to take you to different arhaeological sites and important parts of the globe, you love to see your wards arround you and i promise you that no matter how successful i am in this planet, i will never be far away from you and your wife to take exceptional care of you. Despite the fact that there is no way i could pay you back even with all the promises i made , but my plan is to show you that i understand. I promise to uphold your standard and enforce it on my younger siblings to make them the best among their kind, even my unborn child, i will not depart from islam as the only true religion on earth. I will forever remember you and your wife even when you depart or leave this world to hereafter, i will continue to celebrate you and pray for you even more than you ever did for your parents. I WISH YOU A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR SIR. |
