A Letter Of Appreciation To My Beloved Father

Anecdote

I remember being 12 years old and desperately wanting to learn how to drive. Every time I saw you behind the wheel, I imagined myself there, feeling the thrill of the open road. On my 16th birthday, you handed me the car keys for the first time, and I felt a rush of excitement and nervousness all at once.

We went to an empty parking lot, and you patiently guided me through the basics. I was clumsy and made many mistakes, but you never lost your cool. You were calm and encouraging, offering gentle corrections and lots of praise. It took time, but with your unwavering support, I gradually got the hang of it. Now, at 22, driving has become second nature to me. Every time I get behind the wheel, I think of those early lessons and the patience you showed me. It wasn’t just about teaching me to drive; it was about teaching me patience, perseverance, and the importance of staying calm under pressure.

Thank you, Dad, for those invaluable lessons. They have shaped me into a more confident and patient person, both on and off the road. Your guidance has been a cornerstone in my journey to adulthood, and I am forever grateful for the time and love you invested in me.
