Happy Father's Day

Dear Fathers,

To the world you are a Dad, but to the core or nucleus of a family you are the World.  A father is neither an anchor to hold his child back, nor a sail to take them there, but a guiding light whose purposeful love shows them the way.  If there is any immortality to be had among us human beings, it is certainly only in the love that we as fathers leave behind.  Fathers who understand their assignment in life of their children don't ever die.  They are there always.  When a father is absent, their children look to other means to fill the void and set "rules" for how to behave and survive in the world. 

As fathers, let us not abandon the moral duty of fatherhood.  For those who are set a high standard of displaying the characteristics of a true father, please continue to raise the bar.  For those who have fallen short, there is still time to take your rightful place and be the father today that you weren't yesterday.

Happy Fathers Day!!!!
