Father's day ideas?


Almost every time there is an occasion, my friends and relatives turn to me for celebration ideas and I also manage to come up with something sweet (Patting the shoulder ;)). But alas! This time around, I am actually clueless as to what could make my dad feel like the best father in the world. While I know he is already aware, I really want to show him how important he is in my life. I want him to know that he is my favourite hero, my first love, my guide in life, my best friend, my worst critic and my biggest fan! 

Phew! There is so much I want to convey, but I don’t know how. It seems like I have actually exhausted almost every little idea in the previous years. I made him breakfast, well with burnt edges, but hey; he loved it! We had a day out together at the golf course, did Scuba Diving, I made him a collage poster of our pictures that still hangs in room, and also went out hiking in Dartmoor!

While I agree that you never need a day to express your love, Father’s day is just an occasion when you get to thank the man whom you owe for all that you are and all that you ever hope to be. I really hope I am able to come up with something special this year which brings about the widest of smiles on my father’s face! Any ideas friends??? Please help!

Ascension Day!


"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life."

Despite the difference in opinions, something that links all the sects of Christianity is the belief that Jesus sacrificed himself for their sins and later conquered death! The Ascension Day reinforces the belief, as after the 40th day of Easter, his resurrected body ascended into Heaven in the presence of 11 of his Apostles!

Don’t I just love celebrations? Especially when I get a chance to enjoy twice this week? I’m not just being a food crazy person and appreciating the lovely feast (I'm waiting for *Slurrrppp*), but also the fact that I saw more of my parents this week and most importantly this day simply reinforces our belief in Lord! Hope his second coming isn’t too far away!

Wishing everyone a very Happy Ascension Day!!
