Daddy

My dad turned 70 this year.

In December 29, he and my mom are celebrating their 32 years of marriage.

He worked as a lawyer for more than a dozen years in our little city.

Five years ago, he had a stroke and had been partially paralyzed since then.

My dad was perhaps the most influential person in my life.

He taught me humility and he always instilled in us that we should respect everyone. Most importantly, I learned the lesson of courage from him. He's always the one inspiring us to "just go for it", to be brave to face new things and stand on our own two feet.

The last time I saw my father was June this year.

Today, 26 November 2009, my dad passed away.

I love you, Daddy. I always will.
