The Source

Moms are the ilaw ng tahanan as their role is to brighten up and gather every member of the family into a consensus. Dads are the haligi ng tahanan, a pillar of strength for everyone. I know of a man who isn't just a source of strength to his family but the source of all.

My dad is the youngest of a brood of seven. His family wasn't well off. He got through college as a working student. He started earning at 18 years old. He has been providing for my mom, me, and my brother for 20 years now; that's a rough estimate. For me and my brother, he is more than a provider of necessities and whatnot.

Daddy is the source of fun and laughter.
Daddy is the source of inspiration, motivation, discipline, and perseverance.
Daddy is the source of intelligent conversations, wise words, and food for thought.

No, really. He is. I just couldn't find a photo that's not too funny. Hihi. He may appear like he's more of a comical one, and he is. He just happens to be too awesome for serious-looking photos that I would like to keep. Heehee.

HAPPY FATHERS' DAY, DADDY! You're the wisest, funniest, and most awesome dad there could ever be! I love you!
