It's not yet Father's day for 2009 which will happen on June 21st, but I've learn one of the most valuable lesson as my in-house vacation is coming to an end.
It's my first time to be a father, I mean a really real father to my lovely daughter since I'd assume the role of a father and mother to my siblings when we were orphaned (and oh, I am so grateful that was over!).
I know I am only in my early 30's and some of you may have had granddaughters and grandsons already, but please take it from me, a siimple lessons that somehow will reverberate through the lives of the father's in this world.
I always believe that the strength and success of a family depends not only to the father but to the mother as well. The strength and success of a nation depends on how strong the love and values and moral character the bound the families of that nation. We cannot start a strong nation out of scattered and broken families. It will always start at the slightest part or the basic part and in our case, a family, the basic unit of a society.
You cannot create a concrete house without a hollow block that are compose of cement, gravel and sands.
Yes. Sands.
Sounds like Saudi Arabia, huh?) hehe
The strength of a family lies with the father of the home. The light of the house is the mother who instill moral values to the kids. The strength and light is nurtured by the love of both the husband and wife. But there are some P's that I would like to share to all of you today.
I was recently released as teacher's to the small kids but was again called to serve in a group of young men and adult men, mostly guys and fathr's. It's a challenging position, and I have the chance to teach them once a month.
This is my opinion.
Father's feel free to challenge them, and will accept any suggestions from the best men and great fathers in the blogosphere.
3 P's are:
Father's
Preside - to exercise guidance, direction, or control
Provide - to supply or make available
and Protect - to guard over to cover or shield from exposure,
injury, damage, or destruction.
the family.
It is pathetic and sad that some father's abuse their wives and kids using their powers and strength. May God will comfort those who are in those circumstances to touch the hearts of this men to change and love their families.
The 3 P's are simple and self-explainable. There is no need to expound. The real success any father and mother will have, the success that brings joy and lasting happiness is to see their children achieve and live a better life. May the father's who will read this will achieve those goals and live life with serenity and fulfillment.

wow! nice one sir!
nakita ko yan sa father ko kaya saludo ako sa kanya. i-apply ko rin yan pag nagkaroon na rin ako ng sariling pamilya.
Thank you for the 3P's - Preside, Provide and Protect. An inspiring subject to all fathers, the strength of a society lies in the unity and moral values of each family. Let us build a strong family in the principles of love, honor and respect.
Wow! Wish ko sana mabasa ito ng lahat ng mga tatay, ng mga magiging tatay, at ng mga nangangarap na maging tatay. Ang ganda po kasi ng mensahe.
Talagang inspired ang post na ito sa mga pinaggagawa niyo these days. Ramdam ko ang kasiyahan at kagalakang iyong tinatamasa bilang isang ama sa post niyong ito. Mabuhay ang mga ama!
"Fathers be good to your daughters,
Daughters will love like you do;
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers,
So mothers be good to your daughters too."
Un kanta ni Myers ang naalala ko nung binabasa ko ang post mo.
I'm proud of my father because he gave us all those 3 P's and even more. We, my sister and I, are because of him (and because of my mother, too).
My father is 76. Kaya kahit nakukulitan ako minsan, kahit na pakiramdam ko ulyanin na sya and he's not thinking straight, we remain respectable of his say (you know those decisions na kailangan talaga nyang oohan bago mo gawin, otherwise, magagalit sya!).
Because we know he's happy being that -- a father.
Thank you pogi! Sana magkasama sama kau ni nebz sa triple wedding at triple lechon! hehehe. Wish ko pagkatapos ng crisis... hehe thanks for dropping by parekoy.
The Pope, thanks for echoing the call. I agree. Im sure you are a good father, reading your blog is enlightening and I can sense how you adore your kids.
And Doc AgaRJ, the most eligible and one of the best man in town up for grab...haha! The soon-to-be father, thank you for the comment!
Thank you nebz...how blessed you are growing to have a father, even until now. I always wanted to grow with someone who will guide us and feel the strength and security pero, okay lang, maybe it's God plan para maging strong kami at earlier time. Sorry to say this pero napasmile ako...hehe may mga tatay talaga na parang ulyanin na, pero aren't they cute? I mean, the wisdom and experiences that they have been through...:)
Thanks for sharing that 3 P's nahuhulaan ko na pasadong pasado ka sa 3 P's na yan. Pasadong pasado rin ang tatay ko dyan at ang asawa ko hehehe.
napadaan mula sa blog ng aking mga kaibigan... :)
