[交流] Godfather

Seldomly does one realize that I am the Godfather-the word becomes popular after the 1972 movie. Owing to the affection of my friends, who is truly kind enough to name their baby after me, I feel genuinely blessed and honored by such a glorified title. As humble as I would claim, this symbol bears too many responsibilities that is sort of challenging to lift it up high. Being someone’s Godfather requires you to set a good role model, whether it is in the spoken of your right words, the fulfillment of good deeds, or even the enactment of noble thoughts. Who is your Godfather? This naturally leads the answer to my father, whose heart is not high as mountain, but as clear as water.

Since graduating from college, not much time has been spent with my father because of the distance that separates us from one city to another. On the other hand, this distance also arises from the generation-gap that is brought up by lack of communication. I feel ashamed of myself being not supportive enough to care about him, who is growing older every day. Sometimes what they really miss is properly just very plain words and simple face-to-face smiles. This cannot be accomplished by excusing yourself of being too busy to visit home.  In addition, not everyone remembers the birthdays, the likes and dislikes of their fathers. We tend to demand too much from our parents but instead, return too little to them.

In retrospect I found there were so many precious memories about my father, the person sending me the badly wanted umbrella on the rainy days and the person delivering me the much needed money on the cloudy days. From time to time, I would try to hold my tears when seeing my father’s figure disappearing in front. I could not walk side by side with him back because the campus-high school in this period-was located far away. The only time I was able to visit home was the weekends.

Ridiculously, the older I am growing, the further I am away from home. Now the frequent home visit is replaced by occasional phone call. It is my earnest wish and desire to keep them healthy and happy forever. Send the prays to your parents whenever you get the chances. Do not let it slip away from your hands before it is too late.

the older I am growing, the further I am away from home
四时院中竹叶缘,三更梦里墨书香,几度浮生度日暮,一溪烟月枕中藏,雨解情思风锁门,雾迷书亭幻入真。
