My Father – My Role Model and My Friend

(Essay 1 – 500 Words)
Introduction:
My father is my hero and guide in my life. He is the one I look upon whenever I
find myself in trouble. My father has been my guiding force for all my major
decisions in life. In fact, I have never regretted adhering to his advice as it has
always worked for me. He is a hardworking and passionate person. My father
has a love for movies. Whenever he gets time, he just loves to watch an old
movie. In fact, at times we just fight as to who gets control of the television. But at
heart, we love to tease each other and play as well.

My father does not like to sit idle. At times, on holidays if he finds me and my
sister doing nothing and just idling our time, he gives us some task or the other.
He is also much organised and keeps all his documents in a properly organised
manner.

My Father – My Role Model:

My father is my role model for many reasons. First and foremost I admire his
passion for work. That is why he is so respected in his office as well. He is
always there to help his colleagues even if it is not his work. In fact, one can
always see him spending weekends helping others out. Moreover, my father is a
simple man. He does not like expensive things and lives an easy and peaceful
life. Also, he never shouts on anyone of us. I wonder if he ever gets angry on
anything as he takes everything so calmly and takes his time to decide upon
things.

My Father – My Friend:
My father is my friend as well. I can discuss everything with my father, even
those that I dare not speak in front of my mother. I know that he shall keep it a
secret and give the advice I need. He is the one whom I can rely upon blindly
during any hour of need, and I know that he shall be there for me.

Importance of My Father in My Life:

My father plays an important role in the family. He is in fact considered as the
head of the family. However, I feel that both father and mother have a distinctive
role to play in bringing up their children. While on hand my mother has s soft
heart, it is my father who shows courage and strength which his children will later
on imbibe as their qualities. He can be firm at times, but be rest assured it is
always for the benefit of the children.

Conclusion:
There is no doubt that my father’s role is vital in my life. His presence is vital for
maintaining the balance and peace in my family. A father is the one who earns
the badge of the stricter parent and whose denial of permission for anything
means a lot to the children. I also admire my father and try to imbibe his qualities
so that I become like him when I grow up
