Though you may shed a tear, feel your heart being torn as you leave with an empty quiet car… now is not the time for self-pity or sorrow…
Now is the time to swear a bitter oath through gritted teeth…
That no matter what your children face in life you will be there for them, with them. To hold them when their hearts may break, when there is injury or hurt, to celebrate their wondrous achievements, support their endeavours…
Most of all to show them the unconditional love of a parent no matter what or where or when…
That is the nature of a true father..
That is what to be a father means!
