My father breathed his last when he was only 28. And I heard him murmuring to my mother on his deathbed, just few hours before he went to comma. I was very small then, too young to understand what he said. Since then she kept sombre all through her life of 65 years. The last she told me once was that she fulfilled what my dying father wanted of me… that letting me stand on my own feet.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!!!

There were two things my father told me: 1. You are the creator of your destiny, the world you live in, be courageous and brave enough to walk your own path and if you don’t like what you created, change it.

2: My family were miners of coal, we dug deep into the earth to give people warmth for a pittance of pay. Be the miner of your soul. Dig deep within yourself to find the real warmth and love within yourself and you will discover riches you could never imagine.

I followed the advice and still do. I tried to pass it on to my own children but they thought it was weird. A couple of my grandchildren are more receptive to this advise, that has served me well.

My father always tells “Minor inaccuracies please your eyes and are a sign of handwork” when he screws up something I don’t know if I translated it correctly from Czech to English but I hope you get the point.

It doesn’t have to cost a lot to make Dad feel like #1 on Father’s Day. If he’s like my dad, he’d rather spend time with you than have you spend money on …
