Hello dear friends,

After 48 years of a fleeting life, the joy of rediscovering childhood is different. Those lost moments of childhood are now flooding before my eyes, and I can remember the great people who shaped my childhood anew. I begin my discussion by thanking the honorable organizer @sohanurrahman once again for taking this great initiative.

Who is the person (or people) that shaped your childhood the most?

Several people have helped me with various pieces of advice at different times in my childhood. Such as my mother, father, elder brother, and sister. Among them, I will put my father ahead as the person who shaped my childhood the most.
I was the sixth of five brothers and two sisters, and the youngest among the brothers. Maybe this is why my father loved me more. My father always kept me with him; I was his companion.
My father was a self-critic. He did not like to criticize; whenever there was a problem, he would find out if there was any mistake in it. Before blaming someone, he would find out his own mistakes.
He always gave advice or educational speeches. Again, my father is not in this world today, but his ideal words are with me. And I have kept the ideals in my heart. I try to implement the education.
Today, I respectfully present some of his advice here-

  • Always speak the truth.
  • Always find your mistakes and solve them.
  • Stay away from criticism.
  • Be a human being.

My younger son is with me
He advised me to be a human being. I am trying to be a human being according to my father's instructions. I do not know how much I have been able to become a human being, but I will try to be a human being until my death.
His teachings prevent me from going down the wrong path, prevent me from criticizing. I try to remain neutral according to his teachings. So, I would say that the person who shaped my childhood the most is my respected father.

What is your earliest or most memorable memory with this person?

I have many memories with my father. I have already said that I was his companion. He would not let me out of his sight for long. I will present my two memories with him very briefly-

First memory-

I was born in the village. In the morning, my father usually ate rice in the morning. The rice kneaded by his hands was very tasty. The rice on the plate was also very neat. Whenever he sat down to eat, he would always make me sit next to him and eat rice together. I have never tasted the taste of his kneaded rice in any other food. Even when I grew up, I wanted to knead rice as deliciously as him but I did not succeed. My favorite memory is eating rice with my father in my childhood.

I love to feed my younger son

Second memory-

My father loved to eat paan. He also loved to use toothpicks. But the most interesting thing was that I had to make my father's paan. If I didn't make it, he would refrain from eating paan. Because of this, I always had to be close to him while he was eating paan.
Although I felt annoyed at the incident at one time, now I understand that it was an expression of my father's love. My father always wanted to keep me close, so he would make excuses to eat paan.

How did this person guide, support, or discipline you during childhood?-

My father guided me in various ways in my childhood; he supported me very little. I would say he disciplined me more.
He always taught me when to do something and when to refrain from doing something. I made many mistakes in my childhood. He used to discipline me severely in those cases. He would not forgive those who disobeyed his orders. He never forgave me either, so he would keep me under strict discipline to show me the right path.

I give a lot of advice, which I got from my father

What values, habits, or lessons did you learn from them?

My father was my ideal person. He always gave me advice to develop as a person.
He always told me to be a human being. He told me to be a person with human qualities. He gave me many other educational advices and suggestions, such as where there would be no violent attitude, no greed, and the humanity to always speak the truth. I am trying to live my life by keeping his advice in my heart and soul. Although I am not financially well-off, I am honest. Although I did not get wealth by walking honestly, I have gained the respect of people. I have a good reputation in the area as a good person.

My father gave me advice to develop as a person.

My father's advice has helped me a lot to walk with honesty today. If I had not received my father's honest advice, I might not have achieved social and family respect. Maybe I would have been financially prosperous, but there would have been no respect. So, I remember my father again with gratitude.

How does their influence still reflect in your life today?-

My father always said, "Truth will triumph one day." The advice I received from my father carries a lot of importance in my life. Whenever I am immersed in despair, I remember my father's advice. To be honest, when I listen to or remember my father's advice, I feel that my father is with me. I find courage on the way, and peace returns to my mind.

I am happy to follow the advice of my father

Currently, I am a father of two children. I am passing on the advice I received from my father to my children. I want my children to follow my advice just as I followed my father's advice. My children also listen to my advice carefully. Maybe one day they will also learn to walk on the path shown by me, just as I learned to walk on the path shown by my father.
So, I would say that the advice my father left behind is having a profound impact on my life.

I invite three of my friends to join the challenge

Greetings,

Thank you so much for participating in the contest.

You have shown your father’s deep influence on your childhood with great sincerity and emotion, which I really liked.

Your writing clearly reflects your father’s moral teachings, self-reflection, and guidance toward an honest life. In my opinion, small moments like eating together and the pan-sharing incident make the father–child bond even stronger.

I liked how you described lessons of discipline and responsibility. The way you showed the application of these values in your present life, and your intention to pass them on to the next generation, was truly inspiring.
