Generation Gap

Dear David, Let me share with you about generation gap. By the time you read this you're probably saying why is daddy uncool. Or I keep on saying during my time it was like this and that or we keep asking who is this and that famous person of the time. If you're reading this and you are about to have a family, this would help you to see whats coming. So bakit daddy is not updated to whats in? When mommy and I had you, we changed lifestyles and this starts the process of the generation gap. It creates a a 5-7 year vacuum where we avoid whats "cool" , since during this time whats "cool" isn't always whats "child friendly" ..unfortunately. Mommy and I have not gone into movies, music, tv shows are restricted to kid friendly channels and stations , I realized I'm not up to date anymore when we had our company christmas party and I didn't know who they were performing. Daddy was a little cool before, I use to go to indie bars with your ninongs and watch upcoming bars, or look for cool restaurants before they became popular, and I didn't like what was just "popular". Pa-feeling semi non-conformist si daddy. My appetite for these things has waned off a bit. Maybe I outgrew it, it changes as family now is more important and happiness easily comes with you guys. Don't worry, never did I feel bad or felt wanting , and I hope by the time comes, you understand and feel this to. You will come to a point that happiness can easily be had by just seeing my family and not needing to look for it. That sounds to be a great deal to me anywhere. I'm hoping you're a rocker or interested on whats original and cool rather than whats just popular , if daddy doesn't get it why something is cool, just charge it to generation gap and know its a phase hopefully you'll get there to. Now daddy prays that even if we hit a point where I don't understand why things are cool, I will still be able to understand what you mean, what you feel and what you need to feel better. Love Daddy

Prologue

Dear David, Hi Anak, by the time you read this, I pray with God's Grace you've grown to a happy , loving , Kind and God Fearing boy and that mommy and daddy is there with you. When Daddy was single , daddy had a blog so that I can write about the things i've done, i've learned and places I've been to and experience, You see Daddy was blessed to have been able to experience many things , more than the usual person. Daddy has went to many countries, met various people, learned different things maybe not as awesome as real adventurers are but still alot of rich experiences. I wrote my first blog I did it because I had a near death experience on a car accident and made me realize some of the things I've seen and experienced , even your grandparents are not aware of so I wanted to write it down somewhere. When you two have were born, my biggest fear was that I would not be there for you to guide you,...provide, defend, teach , all the things fathers should do. So by starting this blog, and hopefully regularly updating it, I'll be able to share with you things I've learned that you may use in life or use when you become a father yourself. And maybe, if it comes to a point that I may have changed and you grow older and have a life of your own, I would have written enough for you to know daddy as a person , not just a parent. Love Always, Daddy
