I think these are just one of the common denominators with the leaders of our house. They pretend to just observe instead of being vocal just unlikre our mothers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the first time we were trying to learn how to use our bicycle, our <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">papa <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">was standing from afar, waiting for us to come to him and we were so scared that without him by our side, we might fall and get wounded.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When he threw us in a deep pool so we could learn how to swim, we thought that\u2019s how it works, you have to be thrown in a deep water so we could learn how to survive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We thought he didn\u2019t care when our mother was trying to discipline us and he wasn\u2019t saying anything.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you first broke your heart, you thought you were crying alone, but he pretended he didn\u2019t see you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All these times that we doubted him, our daddy was watching. He was watching you with all attention so he can catch you even before you fall. He just wanted you to trust him so that you\u2019ll learn on your own even if you think he\u2019s afar.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was watching how we paddle our feet to learn how to be strong enough not to get drowned. He was just watching you being disciplined because he believed that you should be molded right.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And seeing you hurting hurts him even more because if there\u2019s only something he can do, even if it\u2019s against your mother\u2019s liking, he\u2019ll do it just to make you happy. Our tatay doesn\u2019t only watch, he listens and he guides us every single time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s the same with our Father in heaven , we always doubt if he&#8217;s watching us, we think he&#8217;s not looking when we fall or when we&#8217;re drowning with the problems in life but he is always watching over us. He always ready to take action and save us from any trouble that we are about to face in our daily lives.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Today, let us give tribute to all the daddy, tatay, papa, ama, paps, popshie even those who stood as father in our lives.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=&#8221;3.20.1&#8243;]<p>\r\n<\/p>\r[\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_post_nav prev_text=&#8221;PREVIOUS ARTICLE&#8221; next_text=&#8221;NEXT ARTICLE&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.20.1&#8243; background_color=&#8221;rgba(12,113,195,0.55)&#8221;]<p>\r\n<\/p>\r[\/et_pb_post_nav][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy Father&#8217;s Day to all papa, daddy, tatay, and those who stood as father in our lives. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":40943,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[31,28],"tags":[108,247,245,246],"class_list":["post-40940","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-evangelization","category-family","tag-father","tag-fathers","tag-fathers-day-2","tag-happy-fathers-day-2"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8Ootw-aEk","jetpack_likes_enabled":false,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/aranzazushrine.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Im-watching.jpg?fit=768%2C512&ssl=1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aranzazushrine.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40940","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aranzazushrine.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aranzazushrine.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aranzazushrine.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aranzazushrine.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40940"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/aranzazushrine.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40940\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40948,"href":"https:\/\/aranzazushrine.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40940\/revisions\/40948"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aranzazushrine.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40943"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aranzazushrine.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40940"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aranzazushrine.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40940"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aranzazushrine.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40940"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
