Are you a father?

For many of us, our fathers are our heroes. We appreciate them for their love and guidance. A good father can set an example of strength, honor, sacrifice, and responsibility. On Father's Day, we honor dads for their love and the lessons they have taught us.

Dad is not perfect. Some of his jokes are cringe worthy, and his dance moves are certain to raise a few eyebrows.You needed him to be there and to love you, and he has always, always done both. He occupies a place in the family that no one can ever take. He is a good example, a man of character and an important teacher. He is also fun loving, and many of your childhood memories involve either him laughing or him making you laugh. He has never been perfect, but you never needed him to be perfect.

Dad is protective, but he never stifled you. He wanted you to grow and learn. He wanted you to become independent. Of course, that meant he made you try and do it yourself first. He made you think. He would ask questions to lead you to the right answer rather than just give it to you.

Are you a father? When is the last time you felt like a rock?

If so, are you are the rock who tied into the ankles of your family members or are you strong and dependable; the confidence of which they stand.
