Do father figures still exist?

Currently, coronavirus has left some of us to reflect on certain issues, mostly affecting men. I look back and sufficiently realised my father had fulfilled a substantial role in my life. Simply because he has typically exhibited salient traits of how dear children should be naturally raised, as much as he is protective.

Heartfelt thanks to him because I am bold, independent, outspoken, generous, and I am proud of myself although sometimes mistakes are made, I manage to make sober decisions that will adversely impact my life positively.
