Daddy

Today my dad came back from his overseas trip.We had a good chat,a little about cars and my mom,but mainly about dating.He gave me some good and sensible advice,and we ended up laughing over alot of stuff.Quite rare for a father and son who hardly see each other,even so when we had some bad times.But I guess all those uneventful stuff has been forgotten and we can move on and treat each other properly and respectfully.Some of his wise words include:

"Why go fishing with a rod?Why not throw a net instead?"
"Why give up the entire forest for one tree?"
"Why look at only one cloud when theres the entire sky?"

He taught me how a guy should be like: Un-desperate,spontaneous,cool,calm,natural.His wise words spoke to me,they said "Daniel,don't be too desperate for one girl,theres plenty out there.Just be yourself,be cool,dun try too hard and force things to happen.You'll scare the girl away."Daddy(or papa,which is what I call him even until today) brought across the point that if I get rejected,I should never take it too hard and should instead,laugh it off.Treat it as something silly that I did,laugh it off and move on.

You've got no idea how meaningful and helpful his advice was.We ended up laughing over alot of stuff like how he played it cool and lent this girl his camera lens and took things naturally and his friends ended up being jealous and marvelling at my dad's charm.The conversation between us was so rare,so important to my life,so much needed by me.For all that,I just want to say,I love my dad and I thank him for all we had today.

Oh before I forget,we did talk a little about education.My dad's a cool guy,he mentioned that he didn't really care what I pursued,just as long as I find success and like my life.He even told me I could be a philosopher for all he cared.Haha,how cool is that?

*Hey old man,if you ever get to see this blog,this is the most important bit.As a son,I love you always and I'm proud to have you as a dad,noone else can replace you,ever.Take care and continue snapping those pix!
