My daddy has always been someone whom I often look up as a role model in life.

A hardworking man diligently works long hours to ensure his family is well fed. As much as he spends most of his time working or traveling outstation (read: for work), he still finds ample time to look into his children’s welfares.

He is an avid reader, who doesn’t like to waste his precious time procrastinating. From there, you will realize that he is always found with a book or newspapers under his armpit wherever he goes. I guess I have cultivated the reading habit from him. It is his vast vocabulary and proficiency in English that has inspired me to read more. I can’t thank him enough for that. Without his advocacy of reading, I do not think I will be able to blog fluently here.
The amount of blood, sweat and tears he has shed for us children is beyond comprehension. Personally, I would not have experienced the best Pre-University (read:SAM) education available without his encouragement. I know that deep down inside my heart, Daddy has sacrificed so much, and in return, asked for so little.

The love of a father is unconditional. Though he may nag or complain at times, it is for our own good. I know I have to learn to please and honour my father more as life is unpredictable and I do not want to regret it later on in life for neglecting him

I love you, Daddy. Happy Father’s Day!
