Among many, there are two men who have been particularly regular parts of my upbringing. One is my dad and one my mom’s younger brother.
Both of these men have shared in word and deed the importance of honesty, character, humor, family love, family connections, working hard for desired goals, being charitable, active church involvement and much, much more. Both have been in dedicated marriages for over 40 years and shown love and devotion to their partners.
What a blessing.
One fathered children. One did not.
Yet, whether men fathered children or not, we can celebrate/remember them on this “Father’s Day,” AKA “MaRoMo Day.” Happy MaRoMo Day!
On this day, as you come into contact with men making a positive difference, perhaps you’ll get a moment to share a “thank you” prayer with God or a word of appreciation directly with the Positive MaRoMo.**
Enjoy the day, filled with the Spirit…
** While preparing this commentary, an early thought was to search for the word Maromo to see if our special day is now recognized. 🙂 What should surface but this Spanish to English translation. IT FITS!!! 🙂
