Father's Love

Fathers are the perfect beings to show love. They may not be as expressive as our mother, cute like our brother or super jolly like our sister, but in the end, they are the ones who deeply cares enough about us. The film entitled “Father’s Love” was very moving because it shows a father’s sacrifice, unconditional love, and it gives us time to think what we have given back to our father.

      Being a father, in a matured daughter's or son's view, is not easy. A father gives effort, money and time to his family. He has to maintain balance between his work and his family. He is the "provider", the breadwinner. He gives us, together with our mother, what we need and what we want. A father works 6 days a week, 8 hours a day and has only 1 day for rest. And in that 1 day, we go to church or eat outside, then back to work. All these, he does because of his love for his children.

    Unconditional love is very common among fathers but only a few can express it. In the film, the father shows his love even at the hardest times. Even though his daughter never understood him even a tiny bit, her father still cared and loved her with all he's got. He gets hurt, but does not show it to his daughter. He cries, because his daughter is at the verge of dying. He made a cake for his daughter, and she just stares at it like it's from outer space, rant at her father and step out of the room. Yet, her father still made her breakfast.

     When was the last time you had given a personal letter to your father? Or even a card, or a note that says "Thanks Dad"? Breakfast in bed? or just a peck on the cheek? You could at least show your father that you are grateful that you have him in your life. Separated parents? A simple text would do.

      Fathers love you the most. It is not easy to be one, but at least some beings knows how to be one, these beings would sacrifice their time, money and effort and they let you feel what unconditional love is. Fathers may not be perfect in terms of their physical or mental state but they are perfect in terms of giving and showing love.
