Daddy dearest turns 70 today !!!

Yes ! My dearest father turns 70 today and what other way to spend this day then giving thanks and blessing to God above for 70 blessed years on this planet earth . More than half a century old , my father has persevered thru thick and thin , of most difficult times of his life to the present time , he has seen and endured alot. Blessed with a loving wife of 44 years and 9 children all grown and successful in their very own ways , my father is indeed someone very special not only to me but also to the people who's life he has touched just by the very little things he does . My father has lived thru the second world war , knew the feeling of living in a war torn " kampung " in the forest , living with a drunkard father who abused him very often as a child and eventually found life in the priest who helped him thru all of this . I guess , if it had not been for God as his pillar of strength , my father will not be where he is today. Still working in the Lord's vineyard despite his advance age , my father is the kind of person who never gives up so easily and someone that I usually turn to , to seek spiritual advice very often. Not forgetting another person who shares the same birthday as my father is my sister who turns 37 today as well.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE BOTH OF YOU AND MAY GOD'S BLESSING ALWAYS BE UPON YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES !!! CHEERS !!!
