The Unsung Hero....! ! !

I have been thinking a lot to put in a Consummate Blog under this topic. The Unsung Hero whom I was referring is none other than the Fathers across the universe whose role is often overlooked. I very well agree as anyone would that "Mom plays a vital role in brining up the child.” But I personally feel that Fathers has always had much more meaningful role on anyone's life which goes unnoticed by many including the film Directors. Cheers to Cheran for his venture in the movie "Thavamai Thavam Irundhu."He did an awesome job portraying the pains of a Father in bringing up a child.

To me Dad is the one who makes umpteen sacrifices and still goes unnoticed giving full credits to the Mothers. He is the one who apprizes us to handle the difficulties that we face from the world. He is the one who helps us to attain mental and emotional maturity in handling relationships and crisis situations with ease. He is the one facing the world of problems, earning for the family and still comes back home with a smile and plays with the kids putting aside all the problems just for the sake of our Happiness. The pride and prestige of the family predominantly depends on him.

My Dad:

My Dad born and brought in a “yuck” rustic village named Sengulipatti.I bet none of my friends out there would have ever heard of such a village before. It had no electricity, no road and no telephones till 1990's and in short it was a complete disaster for someone to be born in that village. The saddest part is yet to come. He didn't have a dad as I have. He has never seen his dad at all. My Dad had his schooling in a place 5 Kms away from his place and he had to walk all the way back and forth till he completed his schooling. I have blamed him for not getting me a bike at the age of 15.He did his PUC in Sivagangai a near by town. Those days were like hell for him. The only part of his life he enjoyed should have his college life in Alagappa University in Karakudi.He did in BSc there and he was the Hostel Secretary. As he told me years back he had a blissful life in the college. That was only phase of life when he enjoyed for himself.

After his marriage he has spent his entire life for us. He has never gone for a movie. And believe I never knew the concept of theatres. He has never dined out in any of hotel. I never knew if he had the habit of smoking and drinking but I can very well remember that he has never done that in front of me. May be it is only because of that I remain teetotaler till now. Literally he has never hit me for any of the naughty behaviors then. He was the one who trained me to decide what to do in my life right from my Tenth standard. He would never ever say anything against my decision and all he has done is that he has asked me to reconsider them and never ask me to change. And it is that freedom which made me to realize what life is all about. And with a meager salary of his he has educated me in Matriculation and made me study in SRM Chennai when I had a seat in Madurai Thiyagaraja Engineering College. Not to forget that he had built a house for us and has got married 3 of my 4 sisters without any help of the relatives. These details might sound petty but when we sit and think about them, it is only then we will know the difficulties in doing them. And till now after getting a job I have not given a single Rupee to him and all he asked me to do was to just save in my Bank account and never asked to support the family. I am enjoying my life out here. Though he might not be a great personality like many Business legends of his age, but the role he had played in my life as father has a lot of Influence in me and I am really lucky to have him as my dad. I have written only a part of what he is and I can keep speaking for hours about his greatness at a stretch.

What I am today is all because of my Dad. I would call myself to have achieved something in life if I could do half of what he has done in his life.
