Wake Up! Pay Attention
It turns out that many of the things our fathers teach us by word and action are truths more profound than we can imagine. It is often after we struggle to make our own way in the world, thinking we do not need our father’s advice, that we realize that we have become our father. We discover ourselves saying things to our children that our father’s said to us.
If we think deeply about this phenomenon we notice that the words of our fathers reflect profound universal truths. Our fathers perhaps did not even know why they said these things to us. We often do not even now why we say these things. They just sound right. It is a Voice that arises within us and there is a resonance in the saying of them. We feel connected not only with our fathers but with universal Father. We have the feeling of entering the sacred.
