On the occasion of Father’s day, we are presenting some great lines quoted on Fathers.

A father is someone that
holds your hand at the fair
makes sure you do what your mother says
holds back your hair when you are sick
brushes that hair when it is tangled because mother is too busy
lets you eat ice cream for breakfast
but only when mother is away
he walks you down the aisle
and tells you everythings gonna be ok

A father is neither an anchor to hold us back, nor a sail to take us there, but a guiding light whose love shows us the way.
