Such an honorable day
for Men of the world who compromise their wishes, comfort, who devotes their
entire life working day and night to give their kids a better future, a better
education and a better life. On such auspicious occasion, AK Mishra’s Art of
Success wishes all the fathers around the globe a very Happy Father’s Day.
Father’s Day is not
only a day to devote fathers but to the grandfathers or anyone who act as a
father figure in your life, who has shown you a right path, a right guidance
when you were confused between several walks of life.
On this honorable
occasion, 21st June 2015, I would like to narrate a story shared by
a guy in our Art of Success Seminar recently held in Delhi on our specialization
module “Art of Success for parenting”. That guy (Ritwik) lost his father at the
age of 11 in an automobile accident. When each father’s day came, he used to
feel depressed, lonely when all other kids used to go out with their father’s,
make various cards, buy gifts, etc. When he grew up, went to college, he met a
friend, who was brought up from a very rich family, the one and only son of his
parents. He used to spend money like water. One day Ritwik went to his friend’s
home, and saw that he was not in very good relationships with his parents. He shouted
on his father when he questioned on his late arrival at home, and I got to know
that he even forgot his Father’s birthday. And when he got to know by his mother,
he didn’t even bothered to wish him and quietly went out of home. Ritwik
couldn’t say anything that time except wishing his father a very happy birthday,
that day Ritwik recalled his school days when his friends’ fathers used to come
at school on parent’s teacher meetings or birthdays with loads of gifts, which
Ritwik missed to feel and experience. And he realized how we human beings do
not give importance to such precious things in life and how some of us die
every day to have those precious things, and people in our life.
Ritwik along with his
mother has been attending my art of Success Seminars for parenting since last 5
years and he regards me as a father figure, for which I feel great proud. As I
said, father is not only a father, but anyone who guides you, who holds your
hands and takes you towards the right path. All those kids who don’t have
father, God must have send some great person in your life as a father figure,
recognize him and respect him. And all those kids who have such precious gift
of God “parents” Respect them, love them. You kids are very lucky! Ritwik
eagerly wants to take his friend along in my Art of Success Seminar for
parenting, and I feel proud when I receive such strong trust of my audience on
me and I feel more responsible to keep that trust high. Parents are such
beautiful creatures on the earth who sacrifice everything for their kids
without any favor of return. So my message to all the kids around the world,
realize their precious love before it’s too late. Respect them, and if you have
grown up, so it’s your turn to give them love, care and respect. Make them feel
how special they are, because they are special! Happy Fathers’ Day!
