My Papa.

Dont care if i sound like a 5 yr old...but this is to the man whos stronger than the world's strongest man and the man whos taller than the world's tallest-My papa.

My Papa is my best friend...I love him so much.

When i need a hug without a reason. Hes right there. If hes away, i can count on my cellphone and even if the distance increases,i can feel his heart beating right next to mine

Hes taught me so many things in life..

Hes taught me that its okay to cry...He thought me that i should always stand up for what i believe is right and he taught me that i should never be afraid of authority...or if possible i should get into a position of authority myself.

He taught me how to play fair and that even if the opponent or even a team member is cheating,i must try correcting them but never should i stop playing fair..

His arms are the world's strongest. Their hugs can heal anything...Right from a fight with mommy to a broken heart and he never asks me why i need them. He just always gives them to me.

Even if im lying on my bed alone. Depressed about my life or something....I swear to god, even if hes not in town i feel him talking to me and when i close my eyes, I can swear i feel him hugging me.

He wears deo so strong it could knock a skunk out...LOL sorry dad...HAD to mention that! Its not his fault...or so he says.

When im sick the first words i say are "I want my papa" And no matter how far away he is, he manages to contact me.

Hes way better than mom wen im sick...He stays up with me,giving me my medicines...telling me stories,even if i've heard them time and time again i never get tired of them

Our trips to the beach are something else...I used to be very afraid of water...but hes taught me to conquer my fears. We hold hands and walk together in the ocean as deep as we dare and if the tide gets too strong,we rush back laughing. Or we just sit...close our eyes and listen to the sounds of the tide..Daddy taught me that the ocean talks to us but we need to listen carefully

And hes right.

Daddy i love you. We've both become more busy but i always need and feel you here by my side. Your hugs make me feel like everything's okay and your kisses tell me never to quit and that i should always keep trying and that with hard work and patience, we can get whatever we want in life.

I love you papa.

Forever and for always.
