The father’s legacy

Building a legacy as a father is very important; this will impact generation from generations of your children. So all fathers are strongly advice that he should build a legacy which result in a good and inspiring idealism in every children he has, that they will also treasure and pass on into their own children.

For instance, if you as a father used to beat and knock down your spouse and your children see it or even hearing it will also follow your footsteps. Even you can observe it, try to reminiscence the way of your father in dealing his family, you will be surprised that you and your father have in common in dealing the issues in the family, in relationship with your spouse, your treatment to your own children, or even in the way of making decision and resolving problems.

As a father, be sensitive in this issue for what you have sowed that will also you reap. Consider that your children are learning a lot and even bad things she/he will tend to imitate. Be aware that the eyes and ears of your children are monitoring especially to the fathers for they know that the father has the authority in most household. Also, don’t underestimate the ability of the instinct of your children it may be as deadly as the venom of a snake.

Eventually, building the right legacy is as easy as one, two, and three. First, put the humility of love so that you will not be discouraged for it is a long and slow process. Next, communicate to your family; be honest to them about your weakness and strength. Ask them to support you in your endeavors in making things right and well for the family. The most important is that you should be willing to listen to them be humble to them and find some feedbacks about how you handle the family; in due time change the cons that you collected from your dialogue with the family and strategize in implementing the amendments. Lastly, apply the real role as a father to them so that they can see the legacy that you are trying to build in order that they imitate it and apply it in their own family someday.

Children, consider the very effort of your father in building their legacy. Though sometimes they fail in doing so but this is not because our fathers are irresponsible rather because we as children lack in willingness to communicate, appreciate and admire our father. Fathers too are human; they need some fuel of encouragement especially from his children. Remember, they fail we fail.

We children give more time to others than to our family, we are stuffed by friends who steal our quality time that is due our father. It is not bad to have friends and other stuff, unless those things are our reason in drifting away from the presence of our loving father. Again a loving father is always open arms to receive you whatever, whenever, and whosoever happen to you, so do not be irritated from the sound of reprimands that lovingly coming from your father. Instead, they deserve a thank you for their tireless effort in making a good legacy in his family and that the father wants to share to us as their children.

This father’s day, let us celebrate the undying great legacy which our fathers have been building for us. Give the warmest greeting that you could ever imagine just to let know how much you appreciate your father for his loving effort. Let him get what he deserved this coming father’s day.
