It's the first time I'm recognizing such a day of the year. Well, I didn't have a father figure growing up so it didn't make any difference to me. At the moment I see no significance of the occasion; perhaps in the distant future I will.

I was at the mall yesterday, and there was an event catering to the festive day of faja's. There were activities gaged for fathers and their kids to bond, specifically for that day it was RC racing. I'd like to think of it as nostalgic but sadly it isn't; though I look forward to spending such days with my daughter regardless of what day of the year it is.

As I recognize this day I still failed to greet my own faja, perhaps I deem it unfit to greet him on such an occasion. My guess is there is still lingering resentment, angst, or whatever those shrinks call it. Amidst my hidden emotions, I do hope that this will not hamper my capabilities of being a good father figure to my kid. Though personal issues perpetually deter me from being a better person, I am optimistic that things will eventually turn out in my favor.
