How do you do it Dad?

How do you make it look so easy? How do you love so unconditionally? How do you keep pouring out when there is nothing to pour from? How do you find it in yourself to be a man of integrity when the world around you says not to? How do you keep a marriage of 34 years strong and alive? How do you strive to give 110% when you get nothing in return? How do you face each challenge that comes your way with courage & conviction? How do you press on when you feel like staying in the bed some mornings? How do you make raising a family look easy? How do you have so much wisdom to give? How do you continue to lend an ear when all you hear is negativity? How do you care so much for the broken? How do you put one foot in front of the other when you know the journey could be hard? How do you keep your smile on your face? How do you have that joy that only comes from a peace from with in? How did you figure out how to do this life? How do you know how to love me in just the right way? How do you know what I need to hear right when I need it? How do you know that I need your views on life? How did you know that one day I would be where you were?
