One of my good friend daughter had graduated to be a medical doctor who is currently on her internship. Naturally both father and daughter are happy. The father had worked hard to support the child and she had done well in her studies. Over a chat with them, the father reminded her daughter with this firm statement; "A good doctor is one who saves lives without discrimination on races, creeds, colour and nationality. Save each live as though u are saving your own father." She replied, "Yes! Dad, I promise your virtue will always be in my mind."
Those few words from both of them really impressed me. A good father is one who loves the child. Patiently, unselfishly together with a lot of effort to bring and care for his offspring. Eventually the child is guided well to serve those who need to be saved. She is there for a purpose to bring life for others to live. The child could be knowledgeable in her profession but the father was there to provide further wisdom of life to enlighten the young mind of the daughter. This is a spirit and dedication of true love between father and daughter. I salute to these admirable friends. The world could be made more pleasant and wonderful with people like them around.
Quote to be remembered; "Don't go around saying the world owes you a living, the world owes you nothing, it was here first." Mark Twain (1835 - 1910)
