Can you be like my father?

Ai-generated Image

Women have standards high ?

I had a mountain of laundry to fold. When I went into the kitchen to make a cup of tea for my father, and when I came back, he was folding it to help me.

I give him a list, and he comes home with bags with whatever was on the list.

He sees me sweating in the kitchen making food, so he keeps on saying, "Bring me whatever is left in the fridge from yesterday & heat it up." Don't cook every day.

He knows I am rebuilding, and he won’t ask for help, but he asks me if I still need money.

I've seen him help my mother with chores when we were young.

He still puts his dishes back in the sink after meals when no one's around (we pamper him enough not to let him do it when around).

He has loved his 6 daughters like crazy and never listened to the world telling him they are girls; do not get them highly educated.

He loves it when we get a lead. He would never stop any of us from growing professionally and would still help if he could.

That is a man, the father of 6 girls now.

A middle-income class man has 6 kids who are educated; he married them off himself alone and is still working at the age of 75+.

He says he will work professionally till he is alive and never stop.

He has more energy and appearance than the young men of today.

He adores and respects his wife and his daughters.

Tell me now!'

Why will I not set high standards as a girl?

I can earn money.

But can anyone be man enough to give time, respect, love, commitment, and loyalty like my father?
