The Story of Champions [Father's Day]
The 10 Paradoxes of Fatherhood, There is a certain immediacy about motherhood that cannot
I just hope that the list of "10" isn't overwhelming for men who read it. I read the description of a good woman in scripture and I find it totally discouraging... I can never make the mark and be that perfect. I don't think I can even make a '5'!
So, how do we change this? (the society - male thing, not my not being a '10' LOL )
In a perfect world ...
The thing that has the most effect on a man’s experience of fatherhood is the woman he chooses as the receptacle of his seed. If he chooses a woman whom he knows will carry even an unplanned pregnancy to term, and one whom he knows will agree to share parental rights, then he will experience fatherhood. It would be even better if he has already married this woman.
Unfortunately some men will choose to have sex with a woman whose views on abortion they have not bothered to learn. Nor will they have bothered to learn whether their sex partner will fight sharing custody with the biological fathers.
Then these men will whine when these sex partners, whom they barely know, choose to have abortions, or choose to fight these men for custody.
As a woman, I can only ask, what did you expect? What did you plan for?
Wishing Fathers a Happy Father’s Day!
My Father
When I was ...
Four years old: My daddy can do anything.
Five years old: My daddy knows a whole lot.
Six years old: My dad is smarter than your dad.
Eight years old: My dad doesn’t know exactly everything.
Ten years old: In the olden days, when my dad grew up, things were sure different.
Twelve years old: Oh, well, naturally, Dad doesn’t know anything about that. He is too old to remember his childhood.
Fourteen years old: Don’t pay any attention to my dad. He is so old-fashioned.
Twenty-one years old: Him? My Lord, he’s hopelessly out of date.
Twenty-five years old: Dad knows about it, but then he should,
because he has been around so long.
Thirty years old: Maybe we should ask Dad what he thinks. After all, he’s had a lot of experience.
Thirty-five years old: I’m not doing a single thing until I talk to Dad.
Forty years old: I wonder how Dad would have handled it. He was so wise.
Fifty years old: I’d give anything if Dad were here now so I could talk this over with him. Too bad I didn’t appreciate how smart he was. I could have learned a lot from him.
