Fathers

I saw this on The Anchoress Online this morning...using her words...""A moving video for anyone who has had a good father." Perhaps an even more moving video for those whose fathers were broken, or deeply flawed or not there at all. When a child steps out and tries something risky and then falls, the mother is quick to run to him, console him and hug him close; she frets for him. The father is the one who says "I'm here if you fall, only do not be afraid." The child needs both."
