My Father is my Inspiration IFC R6S2
# My Father is my Inspiration
https://img.esteem.ws/f06gyphtv4.jpg
I know this is a pretty Cliché thinking and most people preemptively see their fathers as role models and inspiration. That is also the case with me I have seen him face the world for his family. Quite often people see celebrities or athletes as inspiration and I’m also inspired by them but I haven’t witnessed their day to day life as closely just seen their bright side on camera, never knowing what they went through in tough times. As for my Father I have seen him angry, happy and even crying (that I will explain later). I have had talks with my father regarding his life’s journey and we as a Father-Son relation are really close. I can open up to him regarding any situation and he has the best advice for me.

I was born into a family of Four, my Father, Mother and two older sisters. We were a happy and loving family, both my parents were very social and although in Saudi Arabia we didn’t have any relatives but their friend circle was really close with gatherings almost every other weekend. My Fathers was a Doctor and ever since I was a kid everyone told me that this was a noble profession saving lives. At home we were taught to respect our elders, be kind to others and never treat people indifferently. This was the case I witnessed on our day to day life, I have never witnessed my father be disgraceful towards a labor or driver he always tends to be kind to them because every hard earner is to be respected. You see manners and ethics is the difference between a respectable person and an uneducated one. 

I remember as a child my Father usually had night shifts and when I would get ready for my Kindergarten he would enter the house and hug us (my sisters and I). Whenever he would pick up us from school and that wasn’t often we would get all excited because this meant we’re having lunch outside. The family would eat out together, I mean trips to Toys R Us was an adventure. I would usually get action figures while my Sisters would the usual Barbie stuff. I mean now that I look back, I think how even he afforded all our leisure’s. I remember once he went to Spain for a meeting and came with a 4ft teddy bear. The dude was bigger in size than me! 

We were all happy and it never occurred to us that anything can go wrong. That is exactly what happened, my father got involved in an accident and unfortunately his right leg was fractured. This was really bad out of four bones connecting the lower leg three were fractured and eventually he was operated but couldn’t really recover fully. He had to permanently walk with a stick. With this tragedy diabetes also took its toll and his health deteriorated and he had to forcefully take retirement and we returned back to Pakistan. All this was going in his life but I never saw him frustrated at us and his attitude with us remained the same his love was immense for us. 

I was in class 3 when we came back to Pakistan. We weren’t in a financial crisis or something and life went on, my fathers Will was really strong during these years and he wedded both my sisters. 
Now after his retirement we have conversations about his journey, he had nothing at the start of his journey but now as he states “I have everything”. He was born in India and migrated to Pakistan with a bag of clothes, studied really hard and after very hard times he graduated to become a Doctor. He then married my mother and started his job in a village in Saudi Arabia, after many years he was given an opportunity to work in the Riyadh Airport clinic. The year I was born 1997 he claims this was a really lucky year, my father got a call from the Saudi kingdoms Royal clinic and he was on the medical team of king Fahad literally the king of a country. This is a story for another time, he said one thing to me “ I have lived in a one room house made out of clay with your mother and have lived in this house full of luxuries, no matter what happens always be humble because time changes and nothing is a constant”. These are words embedded within my Heart.

My Father has taught me everything in life the manners with which to treat others, never be arrogant in front on anyone, always be humble, don’t let greed change your attitude and the single most important thing is to earn respect from everyone money will come and go but respect is one thing that takes a lifetime to achieve and one moment to destroy. Even if I become half the man my father is that is satisfactory he is my inspiration.

Very inspirational, your father sounds like a really strong person and achieved a lot. We should always be thankful for what we have as things can change quickly as with his accident. Cheers

>I have had talks with my father regarding his life’s journey and we as a Father-Son relation are really close. I can open up to him regarding any situation and he has the best advice for me.

That's awesome you have such a good relationship with your father, I can relate a lot with this as I've experienced similar and my father is one of my main inspirations in life as well. I also feel like I can talk to him about anything and he's been there for me throughout my life.

>I have never witnessed my father be disgraceful towards a labor or driver he always tends to be kind to them because every hard earner is to be respected. You see manners and ethics is the difference between a respectable person and an uneducated one.

Your father sounds like a great guy! I highly admire and respect people who are kind to others like that, plus being in the medical field and helping to heal and save others is admirable and respectable as well.

>Whenever he would pick up us from school and that wasn’t often we would get all excited because this meant we’re having lunch outside. The family would eat out together, I mean trips to Toys R Us was an adventure. I would usually get action figures while my Sisters would the usual Barbie stuff. I mean now that I look back, I think how even he afforded all our leisure’s. I remember once he went to Spain for a meeting and came with a 4ft teddy bear. The dude was bigger in size than me!

Sounds like a super cool and memorable childhood and like your dad did an excellent job of showing love and making things special.

>We were all happy and it never occurred to us that anything can go wrong. That is exactly what happened, my father got involved in an accident and unfortunately his right leg was fractured. This was really bad out of four bones connecting the lower leg three were fractured and eventually he was operated but couldn’t really recover fully. He had to permanently walk with a stick. With this tragedy diabetes also took its toll and his health deteriorated and he had to forcefully take retirement and we returned back to Pakistan.

Damn.. That's really sad.. I'm sorry to hear that. 

>All this was going in his life but I never saw him frustrated at us and his attitude with us remained the same his love was immense for us.

That's impressive to hear that he was able to handle it so well and very inspiring as well!

>Now after his retirement we have conversations about his journey, he had nothing at the start of his journey but now as he states “I have everything”. He was born in India and migrated to Pakistan with a bag of clothes, studied really hard and after very hard times he graduated to become a Doctor. He then married my mother and started his job in a village in Saudi Arabia, after many years he was given an opportunity to work in the Riyadh Airport clinic. The year I was born 1997 he claims this was a really lucky year, my father got a call from the Saudi kingdoms Royal clinic and he was on the medical team of king Fahad literally the king of a country. 

What a great story! I hope some day I can tell a similar one of my life. Time will tell, but... Hopefully! 

>“ I have lived in a one room house made out of clay with your mother and have lived in this house full of luxuries, no matter what happens never be humble because time changes and nothing is a constant”

Did you mean to say "always" be humble rather than "never"? A lil confused on that part if he did say "never" could you elaborate on that a bit? It seems like your father is a very humble person and I'm guessing you just misplaced a word there?

>My Father has taught me everything in life the manners with which to treat others, never be arrogant in front on anyone, always be humble, don’t let greed change your attitude and the single most important thing is to earn respect from everyone money will come and go but respect is one thing that takes a lifetime to achieve and one moment to destroy. Even if I become half the man my father is that is satisfactory he is my inspiration.

After reading this part where you say "always" be humble I'm pretty sure the part above where you said "never" was just a misplaced word now.

Your father sounds like a super inspiring guy! I have a lot of respect for people who try to do good in this world when it is so full of corruption and ruthlessness and it can be so easy to join in with the negativity and predatory ways, but it looks like your father stayed positive and uplifting even after serious injury and hardship and that he helped instill that in you and hopefully the other children and others as well. :) That's awesome. I bet your dad would be a great person to meet and have a conversation with! Sounds like he has one of those legendary sort of spirits to him. 

Great entry man! I loved it and am glad to learn about the inspiring example your father has set and the epic energy he brought to this world. :)

I think a father is a much better source of inspiration than an athlete or celebrity. Sounds like a very good role model. Nice post :)

Dear @shaheerbari

Are you that little boy ? So bloody cute :)

I'm glad to hear that your father was a role model for you. Respect to him.
