I thank the Lord that He has been good to us and giving loads of time together...
and
I am greatfull that God has created the worlds most wonderful DAD...
through him i have seen things that i have not understand and sometimes still don't understand...
he taught me to be faithfull to friends...!he always say forgive friends and always remember the times you enjoyed and the hard times you go through together...
and he also taught me to never give up..once you don't succeed try and try until you can..!
i have never hear my dad say about giving up....
until
recently the last time he went back to his homeland
he told me while weeding..he was about to give up ..he was about to just throw away his grass cutter and just give up..!
he told me he was asking himself how his father could do it alone....!
but after that he still carried on..i could see his frustration...but he still carried on...
from that day on ward every time i am about to give up..i will remember that day my dad told me he was about to give up...that day tears swell up in my eyes...and i am sure like my dad and his father before him..faces hard times in their life..but if they had given up...
i would be a failure too..!

Hi Uncle... really thankful indeed that you did not give up.. that you continued to fight the good fight and run the race... for that is what you've shown and taught, not only your daughter, but all her friends who have been blessed to cross her path. Thank you, for sharing your life so openly with us, and thank you, for the precious "never-give-up" character that you've put in ur daugther. We are indeed truly blessed to have you as our wise "father".
Blessed birthday. May the Lord grant us all more time with you.
:.(.... thanks!
