The heart of a father is the masterpiece of nature. ― Prevost Abbe
Never allow anyone to rain on your parade and thus cast a pall of gloom and defeat on the entire day. Remember that no talent, no self-denial, no brains, no character, are required to set up in the fault-finding business. Nothing external can have any power over you unless you permit it.

Children have a master to teach them, grown-ups have the poets.
If you are God's child, you are no longer bound to your past or to what you were. You're a new creature in Jesus Christ.
Fathering makes a man, whatever his standing in the eyes of the world, feel strong and good and important, just as he makes his child feel loved and valued. — Frank Pittman
