Happy fathers' day.

Not so long ago, I was having dinner with my dad, uncle/godfather and grandfather.

Today, neither my uncle and dad are here with us, which I could say a lot about both of them, but I want instead today to just talk about my grandfather who is still here.

Every single day for the last five years, my grandpa has taken care of my grandma, who has not been doing the best. He’s well into his 80s and while at a time most should be relaxing with a drink in his hand, his hands are always there for her.

He lost both his sons in a period of three months, with no warning at all.

And still… He’s a happy guy!

I speak to him very often and he never makes anything about himself, never gives a bad attitude and always is in a pretty happy mood.

Given everything, if a lot of people looked at life with 10% of the attitude he does, we’d see ourselves in a better world.

So happy Father’s Day to him, my uncle and of course, my dad!
