Default Happy Father's Day!!

Happy Father's Day to all who it applies to! How about we comment on stories we love/ loved about our dads? I have so many, but a big one for me is my father's work ethics. He built our house, our pool and always knew how to fix anything that broke down. The only thing he didn't want to do was electrical stuff. Every time I renovate or fix something myself I thank him for the inspiration! RIP dad, you did good.

Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a Dad.

While I learned many things from my father, the most important was integrity. Basically, everyday you work to put a small deposit into your integrity account. However, one small act can destroy it all.
