Bringg bringg bringg the phone ringing
A father called his daughter
The sound of phone ringing make the daughter
Feel excited and happy without knowing
That it will be the farewell between father and daughter.
Bringg bringg bringg the phone ringing
The daughter answered with the frown cease on her forehead
Not giving a single chance for her father to talk and start complaining
A child self absorbed she was before
As she was the rotten spoiled princess in her hometown.
Bringg bringg bringg the phone ringing
The love of her father have been spoiled her rotten
Protecting her from the reality of the world that always racing
Telling her everyday that this world filled joyous and everyone is a good person.
Bringg bringg bringg the phone ringing
The daughter keep on complaining
Blaming her dad for sending her away from him to face the world alone
Feeling hurt on how universe treating her yet she did nothing wrong
His father keep on listening to her complaining as he know that she just started learning
He know that his daughter will stop complaining
When that moment arrive, he will be long gone leaving
Bringg bringg bringg the phone ringing
Listening to his daughter last sound of complaining
A father who were wise and caring
His love never lessen by his daughter complaining
Bringg bringg bringg the phone ringing
The daughter feel tired after long hours of complaining
Fall silent listening to her father sound of breathing
Feeling that there is something wrong
Her soul slapped her mind and she start panicking
Bringg bringg bringg the phone ringing
The daughter break the silence by asking, how are you my dear father?
His smiling and tired voice talking on the phone
An odd emotional moment feel through the phone
Bringg bringg bringg the phone ringing
Her father told her that he was just tired
Will take a short nap after the phone call
Want to listen to his daughter voice through the phone
Bringg bringg bringg the phone ringing
This is the final advice from father to daughter
World filled with good people although the cruel devil mind is always dancing
That lead them to take an advantage and killing each other
But don’t be afraid my dear daughter
There is always a lovely people that you’ll cross path with, my dear daughter
Bear in mind that life is short and the time taken to ended it is long
The good times will always remain short
The bad times remain shorter yet bad and good memories will be lasting
Embrace the universe feeling, my daughter
As to understand it is by learning
Never stop learning, my daughter
The last advice ended with the sound of chirping
The last phone call from father to daughter.
Bringg bringg bringg the phone ringing
The sound of phone ringing accompanied by sound of chirping
Years have been passed, who’s answering?
The lady answering with the calm voice
The former child self absorbed daughter standing at the seashore
Answering the phone but not complaining
Greeting and wish are the first thing she saying
No more complaining, just the sound of laughing
The beautiful bright sun goes down and the sunset mode is begin
The butterflies flying around her following by the sound of chirping birds
The music of the ocean waves washes her soul and mind
Enjoying the tranquil moment while enjoying the life lesson
No more sound of complaining, just the beautiful sound of nature filled the air
Hard and good time remains shorter
Yet the bad and good memories last forever
Everyone on this planet earth is beautiful just the way they are
We don’t realise it as our human nature like to complain
The skies turning into bright joyous orange skies,
The daughter looked up to the skies
This is the confession from daughter to father. Farewell from daughter to father.
“You, my dear father have been already long gone but the memories will be cherished forever. I feel like we just talking on this morning as the melodies of the good memories still fresh on my mind. Letting go of my pride and ego, I wish you can hear this my dear father. You were and always right. This world filled with beautiful people with the beautiful heart. Happy Father’s Day.”
The ocean washes her feet, and one of the good memories resurfaced on the beautiful sunset skies.
1996
A father and daughter walked together. The laughter and happiness radiated from his daughter. 6 years old little girl looking forward for her very first running competition. His father saw his daughter shoelaces was untied, and he tied his daughter shoelaces. Looking at his daughter face, he told her,
“ No matter what is the result, accept it. If you fall, stand up, keep on running until you reach the finish line. It’s doesn’t matter whether you win or lost. Finish what you started.”
“I don’t understand, father.”
Laughing and hugging his daughter, looking into her eyes,
“One day you will. Eventually.”
Life is hard but it doesn’t mean that your mind and souls have to be moulded by it.
