FATHERS are the divine gifts of God from the Heaven. A Father is a man who cares a lot for his child till death. He is an originator of his child. He stands there as a protector of his babies. He is a loving man with a great heart, which is full of compassion and sacrifice for his youngsters. For us the name of father is another name of love. He is the greatest gift that we ever had from God. It is said that, Life doesn't come with an instruction book, that's why we have our fathers. He is a role model who gives the gift of guidance and wisdom while learning how to stretch his ability to love beyond what he knew was possible. Men learn while they are taught. We owe everything from our father.

This is a tale of a man, Md. Nazmul Newaz who has been served his family throughout his entire life. He gets involved in his job and tries his best to bear the expense of his large family along with his siblings. As soon as he becomes the father of his two sons, he is always there for them as a shadow of God. In his entire life, he did all of his duties for his family without a single expectation from anyone else. He is like a lifeboat in a deep sea for his children. He is someone who holds his children's hands when the whole world leaves them. Nothing can create any problem until he stays beside them. It is said, “The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother." In his whole life, he also followed the quote properly. His personality always radiates like a sun and comes as a ray into the soul of his sons.

This piece of writing is a small attempt to express a tiny part of feelings about the wonderful father. God gives us life and our lives become great under the affection of such noble fathers. At last a deep gratitude to the Almighty for so much happiness of one's life by sending the father who is special in every phase of life.
