What does father's day mean to me... hmmm thinking deeper it means more like a friendship day to me. My dad has always been more of a friend who I can trust for unbiased advice who knows my shortcomings and my strengths.
Someone who taught me how to walk the walks be it the stock market or riding the bike. I still remember my first bike ride with him where we went through the woods near the lake. I was six back then but the whole experience has been embedded in my brain. Also remember Sunday mornings we spent around the table talking about everything from the recent events to the political situation in India.
Picnics were always fun be it walk in the ocean towards the Sindhudurga fort in Maharashtra or the car ride from Mumbai to Ahmedabad, where we visited all the places that he grew up in as a kid.
There are a lot of funny, sad, angry moments but the ones that left a lasting impression were when he took time off from his job to spent time with me during my preparation for my high school exams and making sure I did well, now that I am a Dad myself I hope that I spend quality time with my son.
Dad wish you a happy father's day!
