If you were having coffee with me…. I would say hello and thank you for visiting me.
I would tell you that my garden has been growing on me, its been giving me quite an interesting perceptive on things and life. You see I have fictional character in a work in progress who rather likes to garden; the story doesn’t have much of plot as, yet, but its coming along nicely…. See what I did there?
If you were having coffee with me I would ask you what would you do if you found a rose growing in your vegetable garden?
Would you let it grow?
If you were having coffee with me; I would ask you that did you know why you spell it Father’s Day and not Fathers’ Day? Well not only is it the correct grammar but you are celebrating Your Father as an individual and not all the Fathers in the world, just yours.
If you are lucky to have one you can say Happy Father’s day to then say it while you can; sometimes dads are not quite as appreciated as they deserve; even just checking at the way the days have been commercialized people spend more for their mothers than for their fathers … how about that!
My dad passed away when I was young and I remember watching this movie called Neria; where the relatives of a widowed woman suddenly crawled from the woodwork demanding their share of the inheritance from their late brother’s estate; eventually everything got solved thanks to inheritance law and the judicial system.
I used to wonder if an uncle would show up and say “this is my house now” and claim our mom as wife; that’s what used to happen in the old days, that’s tradition for you. Traditions are slowly evolving and I remember the family elders assuring us; they would support my mum and us; and our estate would be ours and ours alone, and none of these opportunistic customs; the uncles would not even accept my father’s old suits; saying keep them in storage until his children are old enough for them… that is how I still have My Father’s watch… (feel free to read)

If you were having coffee with me I would share with you this tribute:
If I have seen,
FURTHER,
it’s because I was carried on the shoulders
of A giant,
MY FATHER;
Who carried me until I could walk,
And then watched me run,
And still he watches over me as I learn to fly
Thank you for visiting its been a pleasure having you…… have a blessed week.
