A long time ago before covid- 19 I was travelling in local train with my family and I came across a beautiful dad daughter scenario story an inspiration of warmth and love from surrounding
I was with my whole family and we were sitting chatting & enjoying
At one of the stations a dad and his daughter entered the train compartment . The girl was looking very pretty talking in her regional language which I could interpret and after a few minutes the girl found a seat she looked at her dad and he replied with his eyes asking her to be comfortable and he'll be fine . Father was standing since quite long time and many stations passed . I could see she wasn't that relaxed watching her dad stand in this rush hour after all, she didn't smile even once until her dad came to sit besides her she was offering her place again and again to her dad as she was worried .
This happens to me all the time I cant watch my dad struggling through anything I get very weird feeling as I always wanna see him healthy and happy . I feel dad is a strength and weakness in any daughter's life the way he has protected and shielded his daughter from everything the same way they want to give him support and protection . when dads become old and weak, daughters want to hold hiS hand like he did years ago when he taught them to walk run jump and live
ill share my story with my dad . once my family was travelling to a near by hill station for a mini trip it had lots of climbing or trekking before reaching the hotel . i wasn't going join them as my exams were soon approaching and i had to prepare . they were leaving at 12 noon and two hours before that i saw the bags luggage my dad had to carry . as soon as i saw the heavy bags i went back to my memory lane some months back when my dad had got immense back & knee pain . i knew he wont let mom carry them and reducing the stuff still wont help as its a long climb . i went through numerous options in my head where this situation could be stopped . come on think think !!!!! and the conclusion i landed on was to go with them and carry heaviest bags so dad wouldn't face much struggle, at the end moment i made up my mind packed my small bag and went with them . When we reached the starting point of hike he didn't allow me to carry it but me being me stubborn he had to put his guard down . i too was feeling the pain in my arms legs and shoulders but i was still content happy inside
this was the day i realized the depth of words like i could even take a bullet for my loved ones soo yeahhh LOVE YOU DAD .As Soon as my father is comfortable my heart is too
That's a sign of love and connection
