The life of fatherhood

in #life2 years ago

First of all, I want to congratulate all those parents who day by day fight for the well-being of their children in an honest way, striving to teach them the moral principles of life and provide them with an adequate education for a profitable future, to all of them: Happy day! !

Many will say that they have or had the best father in the world, others will say the opposite (that they had the worst), but some like me may not be able to comment on the one who fathered them because they never met him, the reasons may vary but in my case was because he died when he was only 10 months old.

I rarely like to talk about my private life, but I think this time it's worth it because today is a special day, so I want to introduce you to the best Father of all and not as something I repeat because I heard it from others but as something I've experienced in my life during these almost 37 years that I have been going through it.

COULD YOU MISS SOMEONE YOU DID NOT KNOW?
It's hard to miss someone you've never met, the impact my father's death had on the family was profound across the board, we were 7 siblings and the eldest was only 12, the youngest me 10 months old . My mother was left alone because there was no support from the rest of the family. Our economic state, well, it goes without saying what anyone can deduce, we went to extreme poverty.

It must have been hard for my mother, but I... a child (from my memories) innocently happy with what I had in life, the love of my mother and the joy of playing with my brothers, for me it was enough to be happy , I never worried about where the food would come from (it's not something that children think about) and well, it was never lacking.

I have always known the story of my father and that he had passed away, but you cannot feel a story that you have not lived, for me it was just one more person, as if they told me the story of Simón Bolívar or that of any other person, at any time. case could not miss who was not there.
