Day 18 - Who is he ?

It’s been a good lifetime with victories, defeats and experiences. I have traveled different countries, seen different culture, witnessed miracles and have met some of the most amazing people in my journey of life. People with good intentions, people with bad intentions and people who have confused intentions. But I have never met someone who is more than a friend like the guy I am about to tell you. He never makes me feel bad, he tests me with time, makes me get angry on myself but never makes me suffer. 

Of all the things, he loves to explore food and different restaurants in town. Being with him is almost like enjoying a vacation. Every time he has one or the other jokes to crack, so much information to share to all. He is also well informed, street smart and humorous. He lives his life to the fullest with no regrets and makes me jealous at times. He is not a bachelor nor of my age, but he knows tp take care of his family with utmost love and affection. He likes to try new things like new beverages or a new chocolate or would get a pack of ice cream without even your knowledge of it being brought. He likes to pamper anyone and everyone with food. He gives surprise calls to me and tells me that he is getting a Chicken Biriyani for lunch. Who will not love him, everybody does and even some of my friends and family members look up to him.

He gets the groceries on time, keeps everything systematically but that does not make him a Dictator. Not that he was an angry young man or I would like to call him a short-tempered man during his early days. But he loved to keep things ready and not panic at the last minute, a quality of a gentleman. 

He has nothing to lose or nothing to gain at his age. He loves the company of some good chilled beer with few friends along with him. He is hard-working and a task master who does not give up easily. He is a man of honor and a man who keeps up his words. Sometimes he is emotional too, but he does not come across as a person who is like that. His wife talks about his emotions but I have never seen it in front of me nor has he shown any. His daughter tells me that he is a wonderful human being and that I should help him more often. Doesn’t it feel so proud to know someone and be with someone like him ? Or don’t you wish you were like him, which you can never be. You must be wondering whom I am referring to.

He 
is
my
Father.
