Benjamin Jr.


 

I would love to highly appreciate my Fathers works and the journey of his Life as my one and only Father. My father lived in a small town near Dipolog City, Calamba. At first, life was not that very easy, in fact he really worked hard on his career as a student in the first place. He was a Valedictorian on his Primary education and still Valedictorian on his secondary education (High School). He lost his Father (Ben) when he was at college, his father was murdered, and I know that it is a Police related case, since his father was a Policeman.

My father also had siblings, and he is the 3rd sibling from the eldest. They all finished college with a bachelors degree except for their youngest, Benjie. Benjie is the youngest of the three siblings, Benjie is also loved by his big brother Ben. Knowing that Benjie has an illness called "Polio". For almost 51 years, his Mother my Grandmother lived and took care of Benjie for so long. Benjie could not walk, nor speak properly, we treat him as an Angel given by God. but Uncle Benjie passed away a year ago.

Benjamin Jr. is a Registered Electronics Engineer, who served the industry for so long. Longer than I could have ever imagined, ever also since I was not yet born into this world. Father already had a stable Job under the name of ABS-CBN (The Philippine's most Famous Television Network). As for starters, he worked there as a Technician and lived his life inside a small house, where they met with my Mother. After the marriage they waited me for almost 2 years before I was born, and then another 2 years for my sister.

A Father has also a different approach on how they teach their sons and daughters a lesson.

F - Follower, a great father is also a great follower. This is a family term of a leader, where the leader is also a great follower. Follower to whom I might say? Follower to a great God.

A - Appreciator, an awesome and cool father is always a great appreciator. They will support their Kids to nurture them and let them grow with guidance.

T - Teacher, A good father does not teach you bad habits or bad teachings, this is for you not to experience what they experience before. They will also teach you to be a disciplined person.

H - Honorable, an honorable father is like a King from a great nation. A King is not just a King, but also a leader. The best decision maker from the best of his Country is the King or the Father.

E - Enthusiastic. a Father is not just a strict person. A father always want to keep his family Smile and Happy.

R - Reliable, a Father will always understand how you can endure things and from you capabilities, If you need help. Don't trust anyone Except from your parents, and also your Father.

 

Years ago, we started almost from Rags. Then his works became our riches. We also did not expect that he built houses for us, sponsored kids to a public school, helped everyone in the times of need, even though we were also in need. My Papa is our hero, he also taught me how to be a strategic person. He taught me how to be wise and to save money for the future.

Right now, my Father is now the Head Operations of Transmission Specialists Inc. under the name of Abs-Cbn who Visayas region. I am proud of my father and I want everyone to know that sometimes we should not judge a person with a simple outfit. I learned it also from him.

He is the greatest Father I have ever known, with just a simple request "Hey Pa, I want this and that", he will give everything. But last 4 years ago, I will never ask anything from him again. It is because I want to train myself to be independent and trust myself. because someday (he says) we don't know what lies ahead of us, for sure everybody dies, what if Im gone? Are you ready for that? Realizing the fact that my Father will someday be gone or even my Mother.

I know he taught this lesson for us, because he was unprepared losing his Father too.

 
Then again, I love my Father. Also my Family, I hope this blog will reach everyone (also with my bad grammar skills) now this blog will be permanently locked inside the Blockchain. I love you everyone, and Happy Fathers Day!
