Happy Father's Day.
Some people have lousy fathers. Some fathers skip out. Some are selfish and self-centered. Or immature and absent even when present. Some are just plain mean or abusive. This day brings up all kinds of emotions, and not all of them good.
If you were blessed with a good father, be thankful. If he made you feel loved, or caused you to be a better person, consider yourself better off than many. No matter what his personality or flaws, if you find something positive to say about him, concentrate on that today and be thankful.
For some of us, it's a great day. We know toughness and tenderness, strength and soft-heartedness. We've had encouragement and a good example. We are truly blessed. If your father has passed away, remember the good memories and let the others go today. If your father is still here, give him a hug and say thanks. If you're holding a grudge for the past, do yourself some good and let it go. Today is what counts.
