As I close my eyes and drift away to a land where there is love, health, peace and blessings. I wanted to take the time to think and reflect.

     This year Father's Day is celebrated on June 16th. Whilst Father's Day, appreciation of fathers and paternal bonds can be shown any day of the year; days set aside on the calendar are simply a day to say: it's your day dad. However, days as these can also be a source of tension, anxiety or hurt. Especially for those individuals who do not have good relations with their fathers, or never felt the love of a father. This is where we can think of the many loving and caring individuals who have taken it upon themselves, to care for the individuals without fathers or parents. Societies, communities and families come in all different forms. And to be able to find unconditional love of a father / parents is truly a blessing. 

     We can consider single parents. Single mothers or single fathers, who are fulfilling both parental roles. For instance: we can think of a single mother. Will she get the recognition on Father's Day? And vice-versa. It's an interesting space for questioning. Now I turn to those father's who are far away, we can think about how this day can be utilized for wholesome communication. And the father's who are no longer alive - how memories can be remembered and cherished. All the different relations reveal the various threads that make-up families. And how celebrations such as Father's Day can be celebrated with the making of new traditions, according to ones relations. The varieties also reveal the openness of the arms of God, the spiritual father. Whose ever-lasting, ever-lining presence satisfies our human needs / want for the fatherly touch.

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers!

Feliz Dia Del Padre! :) 


May we celebrate with happiness and be grateful and thankful for the many individuals who are caring and loving those who are without. With a special focus on the youth, the homeless, orphans, and the ones who are living  at the margins. May God protect you with love and care. ​
