Well
Poems & Ballads have been written on MOTHER & her love which she bestows on her family. The sheer compassion which she exudes is an innate characteristic.
But seldom we find a piece on FATHER. I have been very close to my father even than my mother. He has in subtle ways influenced my thinking & affected my judgement. It won't be an exaggeration if I may say that my whole thought process owes him a great deal.
FATHER'S WAY is a song sung by Seal ( An English R&B / Soul singer ) for the movie "The Pursuit of Happyness". Its a beautiful movie which displays the relationship between a father & a son amidst the struggles of life. & the song brings this feeling in a very aesthetic manner.
=========================
The lyrics goes like this :
"I build a fence around you in a father’s way
I try to feel what it is your going through
Co’s I’ve played many ways
When you grow, how much will it take to slow you down…
Half the way? "
Will Smith as a father tries to protect , provide , teach & loves his kid ; amidst his struggles in his life.
Maybe he paves way for his son a "FATHER'S WAY" which he may go on to follow in his future.
Seal has sung it beautifully with his mellifulous voice.
====================
Why Special to Me
====================
Its subtle but there's a way I could see in my life which my father had unknowingly made for me. It was paved with values & ethics. It was lighted with honesty & perseverance. It culminated with a sense of satisfaction with a forevision of another goal & path to embark upon.
This song conveys this to me.
