Fathers Day

Honoring the Role of Fathers, And Embracing Their Humanity.

Today, we celebrate fathers — not for being perfect, but for showing up, trying, dedicating, correcting, restructuring and loving in the best ways they know how.

Being a father is not just about provision. It’s about presence. Being a father is in guidance, the silent sacrifices, the silent prayers, the long days and even longer nights trying to meet up and show you care. It’s in the moments where they don’t have the answers but still choose to stand firm, for their families. Yes cause it all count.

Fathers have flaws. They don’t always get it right cause they are not perfect and no one is perfect. Sometimes, they carry pain they’ve never been taught how to express. But great men aren't those without fault — but those with the willingness to grow, to apologize, to try again.

To every father reading this: Your role matters. You are seen. Your strength counts — but so does your softness, your voice, your vulnerability.

And while you deserve respect, remember: respect is also what you give. Your children watch how you treat people, how you treat their mother, how you treat yourself. Be the kind of who they look up to, the man who earns admiration not just through duty, but through character.

Fatherhood also entails consistency. Not just grand gestures once in a while, but the daily showing up — the school runs, the listening ears, the small talks that turn into big lessons and mold great people of society.

It’s about emotional safety — creating a home where your children feel safe to speak, cry, ask, and be. Children don’t just need someone to protect them physically. They also need emotional availability.

It’s about accountability — recognizing when your actions cause harm, and taking steps to heal it. Being a father means doing the inner work, not just the outer duties.

It’s about legacy — not just in name or inheritance, but in values. What will your children say about your kindness, your fairness, your love?. What would speak for my children after am gone.

And lastly, it’s about balance — showing strength, but not fear of softness. Leading, but also listening. Being a protector, but not controlling. Being firm, but never unkind.

So here’s to the fathers doing their best, the ones learning as they go, and the ones choosing to love deeply — even if imperfectly.
