My Dad, My Superman

Always.

My Dad, My Superman
The Marquette Educator

If you asked me 10 years ago what my favorite superhero was, I would immediately say "Superman." However, if you ask me today who my favorite superhero is, I would say "my dad." My dad is the greatest superhero I know. I'm convinced he wears an invisible cape around his neck every single day. My dad is one of the most influential people in my entire life. He shapes the very person I am today. I have inherited many qualities from my dad, such as his stubbornness, his temper, but the most beautiful quality I have inherited from him is my heart. He has the softest, sweetest, most loving heart and I am so glad that I am able to say that I possess this trait of his. He has a special place in his heart for everyone he encounters.

Everything I have learned about a good man is learned from my dad. I know what a good man looks like and acts like. He showed me not to accept anything less than perfect. He is a faithful, generous, caring husband to my mom. He treats us with absolute respect. He makes sure that our family is his top priority. He is the anchor of our family. He holds us all together and makes sure that we are reaching our greatest potential possible.

He makes sure my family has everything we need to be happy and healthy. I know he will always be there for me to protect me and save me when I need saving. I mean, I am his little princess. He is the most special man in my life. I watch how he lives his life and I make sure that I follow in his footsteps. He is incredibly successful at what he does and he is the most amazing father anyone could ever ask for.

There is a quote that says "A father is a son's first hero, and a daughter's first love." I tend to think this is untrue, to an extent. I think that a father is both a son and a daughter's first hero and first love. My dad will always be my superhero, and he will always be my first love.

Dad,

You will always have a special place in my heart. You will always be my number #1 guy. I love you so much.

Love always,

Your Little Princess (and favorite child)

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
