DT: THLADO 9, 2013 Ode to the Fathers - Thelma Faihriem Hmar Every year, we evidently witness the celebration of one of the most special day, Father’s day at our church; at our own blissful home and a grand wishes publicly displayed through mass media with its enticing words that sojourn happiness for the day. This auspicious day is filled with gift giving, prayers, grand dinner, felicitations and unusual speeches for the fathers etc in all the country. I’m always reminded of the value of having my own father, who fitted in the chasm of my life and stood in the position of being my best friend in this world. I felt a deep longing to be with him even while jotting down the admiration I have for my father particularly and every married male who got the opportunity to be called by his children in the heart touching word ‘’DADDY’’ .It is indeed a fact that makes one and all experiences the touch of blessings that comes through the father`s consciously and unconsciously at this momentous occasion. The role of the father in the family is no less crucial than that of a mother. The inadequacy of the family lies on the hands of the father in various ways although the mother took the responsibility of the family matters and the children. The performance and deeds of the father is the mirror of his family‘s honor in the society. Moreover, the ties of the family bond rested upon his shoulder. It is also interesting that the social status of the family is represented by the father of the family. All these positive points inclusive within the character of the father are worth praising. How can we keep our mouth zip apart from all the sacrifices done to us by our father? It is indeed very sad to some people who had lost their father and rather have to express their gratitude and articulate their joyful songs to their mother at this special occasion but let’s reflect back our memory‘s canvasses; let’s find out those hard moments filled up by our father only for the sake of their children, then we wouldn‘t regret instead realize the necessity of praising and loving them forever even though they are absent in this earth. The feeling of anxiety will be justified when we accept and understand their grace besides all the other things. The demise of the father shouldn‘t let us down in this remarkable day instead we must show the good ethic avatar that would remind others that the spirit of our father still engulfs and protects us. In this ways we should glorify our deceased fathers. So, cheer it up for people who don‘t wishes to celebrate FATHER‘S DAY on account of the lost of their loved ones. As we progress on, it will be a mistake not to mention the benefit guaranteed by a father maintaining a healthy relationship with his children. A father is a mentor for his children along with his wife. There is a great prospect of spoiling a child if he/she is remote from the guidance of his father. The children‘s secret model can also be the father of one‘s own family. He could be his children‘s ruling passion. So, maintaining etiquette is discreetly performed by the father for the betterment of the children. The father‘s endeavor to build an intimate relationship between him and the children is making the ties closer that have the capacity of evolving into a deeper understanding between him and his children. He knew that this kind of healthy relationship can develop transparency within the family and the children. The deserved father‘s attempt in strengthening communication gap between his children and his wife is a great aid during experiencing pent up emotions and several difficulties that envelope his family. I’m the perfect epitome for this since my relationship with my dad is intimate enough to reveal my problems. I felt a great relief when I’m close to him. A father is ever the protector of his children. He defended his loved ones in the best ways he could; he guided and led his sons and daughters on the right path, on top of that made a stable administration for the better functioning for his children. The importance of a father was elevated to such extent that he personify the quality of a good friend, who always stand by the side of his children whenever they are in need of help and support. He made his dotting children happy and enjoys hubris in their life. The importance of a father grows higher only if we realize his standpoints as being our God on earth and the fruition of his teaching. The father of the family is a Godlike creature, who is filled with the essence of higher power unlike the other living soul on the earth that we live in. The immeasurable love from his heart spontaneously sprouted out in the form of giving advisable words shrouded with proverb that is full of wisdom and knowledge. And all the inspiring commandments he delivers for our cause is indispensable in the walks of our life. Where shall we find all this merciful promises? This paradigm of promises can’t be found within the hypocritical and pretentious people outside the family. How lucky it is to have a father, who guides us with the secret of his own innovative ideas! As we see in Proverbs 3:1, 2 ‘’My Son, forget not my law, but let thine heart keep my commandments: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee’’.The acknowledgement of the commandments of one`s own father is the key to eternal life and peace, which is desired by every living creatures on earth. While the chance is given to us, we should not abandon it. It’s for our own good. The fruition of his teaching has the capacity of extending it generation after generation that will come. It is sad to wind up the ODE of the love of the father, his relationship with his children, his Godly love and didactic teaching along with the significant role he acted out in the family in this father‘s day. Let this few points be a blessings to everyone who read it and those who don‘t read it. This is meant for all the fathers of today, who have also moved the world that never moved. Your contribution for the welfare and well-beings of your children and family; and the unending love that is distinctly visible in you will always remain in the heart of the mystery that remain unsolved. BLESSED FATHER‘S DAY!
