Now I Understand Why My Father Was Silent !
When I was a boy, I used to wonder why my father came home some nights so late, so quiet.
No smile. No stories. Just silence—and a heavy walk to his room.
Back then, I thought he was just tired.
Now I know better.
He was fighting battles he couldn’t explain.
He was broke, but couldn’t cry. 😭😭😭😭
He was sick, but couldn’t stop.
He was overwhelmed, but couldn’t show weakness.
Because men don’t get the luxury of falling apart.
The world is BRUTAL to men.
You either produce or perish.
No break. No vacation. No soft landing. Just pressure and expectations.
Provide. Protect. Lead.
Even when your back is broken and your soul is drained.
Now that I’m grown, I understand.
I see the pain he hid.
The nights he slept hungry so we wouldn’t.
The dreams he buried so we could dream freely.
The tears he held back so we’d feel safe.
To every man grinding in silence—I see you.
To every father sacrificing his health, his sleep, his peace—you are the real MVP.
To the fathers who died before they could witness their children's success—may your souls rest like warriors.
This is for the unsung heroes.
The men with cracked hands, bleeding hearts, and unbreakable spirits.
You are not forgotten.
You are not weak.
You are not invisible.
You are the reason families stay standing.
God bless our fathers.
God strengthen our sons.
And may we, as men, carry this legacy with honor.
Happy Father's Day to all men.
R.I.P to my beloved Dad.
