The Love of a Father, Knows No Bounds

“This picture is not clear. That’s because it was taken at exactly 5:01am. The man standing in the door is my dad. My father doesn’t work and yet he wakes up at 4:45 am to accompany my sister to the bus stop. He then comes back and waits at the gate until 5:05am for my bus to come.

He will call me as soon as he sees the bus approaching our house. Everyday without fail my dad does this. He doesn’t need to but he does it anyways. I took this picture today because: Its cold and we don’t have electricity & my dad is standing at the gate getting wet from the rain and yet, he could have chose to sleep and let us be.

I really am blessed to call him my father. He doesn’t have much but I appreciate everything he does for me out of the love of his heart. The little that he had, made him able to raise us as a powerful family. I love you papa, and mostly at this point thank you for cutting your sleep short just to make sure we are safe.” – @boitumelo
